Algunos recuerdos (no) son míos

About This Movie

Algunos recuerdos (no) son míos is a fascinating dive into memory and identity through the lens of a self-managed bi-lesbo-feminist archive. The unnamed archivist’s obsession with that photograph creates an eerie but captivating atmosphere. It’s not just about the image of Lupita; it’s about the layers of connection and the stories embedded in the archive. The pacing is measured, allowing you to sit with the weight of each moment. The film uses practical effects subtly—like the way the kiss mark on Lupita’s face becomes almost a character itself, representing lost love and longing. It’s all about those quiet reflections on history that often get overlooked, and that’s what makes this documentary stand apart.
