Grandpa, grandma, what happens to our videos after we die?

About This Movie

So, this doc by Niki Arniakou digs into a pretty heavy topic: the existence of our memories and media after we shuffle off this mortal coil. It’s reflective, kind of raw, and it doesn’t shy away from exploring the dual nature of life and memory. The pacing is contemplative, which feels right, you know? Instead of just throwing facts at you, it lingers on moments that make you consider what we leave behind. The atmosphere is almost somber, but there’s a thread of warmth that runs through it. It's like a personal letter to lost loved ones; Arniakou's approach to practical effects—using home videos—adds a layer of intimacy that’s hard to shake off. It's distinctive in how it makes you ponder death and legacy through something as everyday as video.
