Alice / Yvette

About This Movie

So, there’s this intriguing documentary, *Alice / Yvette* from 2024. The director, who remains a bit of a mystery, gathers these personal images and recordings of his grandmothers, Alice and Yvette. It's all very intimate, you know? The pacing is reflective, almost meditative, capturing fleeting moments from visits in 2021 and 2022. The film feels like a collage of memories rather than a straightforward narrative. What strikes me is the rawness of the visuals—like you’re peeking through a family album. Themes of familial connection and the passage of time weave through the footage, giving it a poignant vibe without being overly sentimental. It's definitely distinct in how it embraces the fragmented nature of memory.
