Memories That Aren’t Mine

IN DEVELOPMENT | TELUS Originals

Anna Chiyeko Shannon’s preservation of family archival 8mm film becomes a catalyst to excavate how grief and cultural disconnect arises within themselves as yonsei, and their sansei and nisei relatives. Looking back to move forward, Memories That Aren’t Mine will act as an heirloom to foster a stronger connection to Japanese-Canadian culture and identity for Shannon’s future children, nieces and nephews; Gosei.
