TRACK-MEMORIA is set in a reality where memories get stored on cassette tapes and sold in stores. This technology allows Emilio to ignore the present and turn to the comfort of the past – he can ignore the people in his present: his boss Thomas, the customers at the store and the man from the corner of the street. When his ability to visit his past gets taken away, Emilio does everything in his power to go back to it but must finally learn how to exist in the present.
About the Director
Malcolm Judah developed TRACK-MEMORIA since 2021 for his thesis. It has come a long way and undergone many different changes in regard to the story. Each change that was made made him more excited to find ways of telling Emilio’s story effectively, He relates to these struggles with technology. This was his first time directing something of this caliber; the further they got into the making of the film, the more eagerheI became to get the story right.
