An immersive experience honoring ancestors left behind. Written & Directed by Cara Page with VR filmmaker Philip Sanchez.
This guided experience is a visual installation and an interactive, virtual-reality film that invites audiences into the story of an ancestor named-Future, who travels across time and space to take "mismemoried" ancestors home. She is arriving at Central State Hospital in Milledgeville, Georgia, to meet Hattie, a former patient and worker who was left behind and forgotten by the hospital. Filmed in 360° video, this experimental, historical drama takes place on the actual campus of the Central State Hospital in Milledgeville, GA. The experience explores complex histories of racism, classism and ableism in medical institutions.
Mismemoried is a new word meaning-the missed and the lost memory of ancestors when they are disappeared and/or taken from generations.
