Animating family photographs to give moving life to still images, these three films offer rare glimpses into the intimate, private stories that shadow public history. Gehr’s Photographic Phantomsß uses flicker techniques to bring alive a voyage to the Old World while Gioli creates fluttering portraits from silent-era home movies, re-photographing single frames to diagnose the rise of Fascist militarism. Schedelbauer turns to her own family history in Japan and Germany to meditate on the repressed images underlying collective memory.
