Overview
""The Angie Archive" is a personal experimental documentary short film. Told through a combination of narration, home videos, 16mm footage, hand-drawn animation, and family photos, it tells the story of Claire Maske's search to find every single photograph in existence of her mother, who died ten years ago. It explores the relationship between photography and grief, the construction of fantasy and identity through family photo albums, and the failures of archives." -- Abstract
