A Portrait of Tracy is a short experimental doc that lets us in on a conversation between Tracy and her late grandfather – someone she holds closest to her heart but struggles to remember. What echoes from childhood remain, as a young immigrant who left one life behind for another in a foreign country? How does one grieve for the memory of a person lost to distance, language, and time?
This film is part of Otherly, a series of seven short documentaries about belonging, premiering on Instagram Stories.
A Portrait of Tracy is a short experimental doc that explores the echoes of childhood memory from an immigrant’s perspective: what is lost to time and distance, and what remains?
