My Mother’s Mother
Synopsis
A lyrical meditation on how mothers move us across borders, My Mother's Mother is a film about mothers, cycles of migration, cycles of life, death, and rebirth, tracing the umbilical cord like the root that it is. Exploring the lingering past lives of our mothers, and our grandmothers, drawing upon the filmmaker's matrilineal lineage, Asena Nour untangles the memories, stories and histories that make up this generational saga about womanhood.
