WHAT I REMEMBER

  • In the rural town of Brookehaven, two strangers meet each other in a stroke of fate. Ryan documents everything in life with a camera, and Sam, a lonely troublemaker, welcomes Ryan into her life. In the present day, Ryan has gone missing, and Sam reminiscences on their past as she goes through the old footage and searches for Ryan.

  • What I Remember is a found footage drama which began as a short film in 2023. The story, that of two troubled youths bonding while recording their life with a camera, struck a chord, prompting me to develop the short film concept into a feature film.

  • Shot on a camcorder with a low budget DIY crew in the summer of 2024, “What I Remember” is a collection of intimate moments and glitchy, datamoshed memories, telling a tale about rural upbringing, queer community, and the recollection of the past.
For several years, the phrase ‘found footage drama’ has been echoing through my mind. Coming from the world of alternate reality games and experimental cinema, I’ve been unable to escape the idea that found footage was a form with still untapped potential; a gateway to types of films and stories we still have not seen.
