What it’s about. Slow motion imagery of a female face is duplicated and superimposed over itself. One of these image tracks plays in reverse; the sound of a female voice recalling the first time that she saw her lover is played over and over again, overlapping multiple times until it becomes a wall of intense sound; and the music score is an ambient electronic drone that glides along with the visuals and the dialogue. All of these elements come together to create a film that is a meditation on memory.
Who’s in it. The Past is a Foreign Country stars Raquel Nave as Performer.
