- SynopsisConceptual artist and filmmaker Maria Marshall shoots her grandmother on super 16mm film. Grandma Madeleine, who was born in Baghdad and sent to Bombay to marry at 16, recalls her life. Deconstructing the conventional sound of the film by rewinding and placing sections out of synch, with stretches of silence, suggests the distorting effect that time and age have had on the colourful stories she has to tell.
