Passing Through/Torn Formations
1988 · Movie · 44 min. · Canada
Philip Hoffman’s passing through/torn formations is a wide open ramble through the labyrinth of memory, considered primarily as a family affair. The film deals with the life and history of Hoffman’s Czech-born mother and her family, presented as a kind of polyphonic recitation—of words, of images and of sounds.
