“A declaration of faith in a medium that hasn’t lost its power to astonish.”

Startled at daybreak by an inexplicable loud bang of unknown origin while visiting her sister in Colombia, Scottish botanist Jessica (Tilda Swinton) sets out to discover the source of the sound, leading to encounters with doctors, audio engineers, and archaeologists uncovering ancient human remains at a construction site. The first international production and English-language feature by Thai auteur Apichatpong Weerasethakul (Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives, Cemetery of Splendour), Memoria is not only a bold, audacious film, but also a ringing endorsement of watching films on large screens in darkened rooms among other viewers—the only way Weerasethakul intends for this feature to be experienced.
