GAN-GAN

2014 / 3 mins / UK / English

In this poetic and visual tribute to her grandmother's life, whom she affectionately calls Gan-Gan, Gemma Green-Hope paints a rich portrait of a fascinating woman in just over two and a half minutes. "I want to catalog her life and all its treasures," Gemma narrates as we see images of sculptures, antique tables, and the many lists her grandmother made. Throughout this film, Gemma aims to "show her grandmother to herself" and remember her through her home's smell of sandalwood and the old books that lined its walls.
