Dust

Synopsis

Polvo (Dust) is a 28-minute experimental essay film that chronicles the real-life disappearance of the son of a French woman and her American husband from Mexico City during the politically-charged late 1970s. Polvo examines how memory is shaped by everything that surrounds us and how seemingly unrelated images, real or imagined, fuse to become one story in our minds.
