Every Contact Leaves a Trace
Lynne Sachs (Dir), 82 minutes, USA, Western New York Premiere
ARTHOUSE SPOTLIGHT
Director Lynne Sachs in attendance.
Contact—so tactile, so evocative of the touch of one person on another, physically and emotionally. Trace—a way to get back to an earlier point and a reckoning with the remains of that initial encounter.
Filmmaker Lynne Sachs has saved every business card anyone has ever given her. After 40 years of collecting, she recognizes their mnemonic powers. With 600 cards in her grasp, Sachs contemplates the impact of these haptic exchanges. In both real and imagined ways, her essay teases apart their vivid resonances, entwining personal memory with geopolitical history through visual abstraction, music, and a poet’s sense of introspection.
Featuring Lawrence Brose, Bradley Eros, Angela Haardt, Juan Jiang, Betty Leacraft and Rae C. Wright.
Many thanks to Icarus Films.
