Memorias de ultramar is built around footage shot by families that lived in the colonies, provinces and territories under Spanish domain between 1940 and 1975. A parade of snapshots common of those who move to a different country and start a new home. This scrapbook pages keep on turning, but in some moments the screening stops, the editor rewinds, zooms in, focuses and looks for echoes lying inside this trove of family mementos and memories.
