"These characters that I embody are my ghosts, my monsters.
They are all inspired by my family members, by this duality inside of them. My view on who they are is tainted by the many parts they have played in front of me.I need to incarnate them to tame them, to control them.I saw them all performing and they are now present for mine.I want to understand who I am, I want to control my identity." - Laura Dubourjal
The score of Laura Dubourjal's graduation film Re enactments of my Childhood Memories accompanies and illustrates these characters. Each is being presented together with their own musical theme, modulating throughout this performative journey and woven together into a playful and rich atmosphere.
