Inconsolable Memories

The film is presented in black and white and combines archival documentary material with original footage. It showcases scenes from Havana alongside photographs of Cuban artists and intellectuals, all interspersed with segments filmed by Stan Douglas in Vancouver.

Inconsolable Memories employs a dual-loop format where one film consists of five sequential parts and the other has three parts. This structure results in the two loops starting in sync but gradually becoming out of sync, contributing to the film's exploration of memory and time. The installation is designed for a dark gallery space, enhancing its immersive quality and engagement with the viewer.
