The soft murmur of distant voices. The hauntological and oblique, our personal lost utopias, memories we just can’t shake.
Seven films that chart our memories, realities, and objects of nostalgia: The last remaining Mimic in England, impersonating those we have lost; Bubba, a virtual browser-dog snuffed out with new programming; a student who finds himself waking in the strangest of places; a mythical Mayan figure that brings death and despair; a shadow puppeteer haunted by memories of the Khmer Rouge; a man walking through island streets, searching for ghosts; a simple game of trading cards, taking place in the space between then and now. DISTANT VOICES investigates the hauntological, those lost things we can never get back.
