About This Movie

So, here's the scoop on 'Re:collections'. It's a deeply personal documentary by Yo-Yo Lin, who navigates the haze of memory and trauma during a four-month stint in Taiwan amid the pandemic. The film dances between raw emotion and the formalities of a documentary, blending new media performance with intimate storytelling. You get this atmospheric feel as Lin digs into familial connections and medical pasts, which resonate through the screen. The pacing is contemplative, allowing you to linger on thoughts and reflections, almost like you're sifting through memories with her. It’s distinctive in how it weaves together the visual language of performance with documentary style, making it feel like you're part of a delicate introspection rather than just an observer.
