From L’Espace:

Feelings, memories, sounds and stories – that’s life

The series of four short films from DocLab aims to provide viewers emotions and feelings related to the lives of people around us and share the authors’ emotions and thoughts. Our lives contain so many memories and stories. So how do these stories influence our feelings? That is what the authors want to discover:

1. Khi tôi nằm chết (When I die) – Director Nguyen Phuong Anh, 2014, 13 mins – the author’s autobiography.
Forget sound, forget the memory, forget life. Abandonment is not negligible in this absurd life. When someone dies, any place for him/her to return?

2. Chung sống (Living Together) – (Director Dang Duc Loc, 2011, 10 mins) – Residents of the apartment.
People’s lives in ancient apartments are often a sentimental link because they share common living areas. But behind the door of every family, there are still private stories.

3. Chuyện mọi nhà (The history of all families) – (Director Pham Ngoc Lan, 2011, 9 mins) – Several characters.
This film is like a room full of stories saved directly to the radio. Although these are personal stories, as time passes, they eventually become “stories of all families” and are largely integrated.

4. Ông Nội ((My grandfather)
– (Director Dong Phuong Thao, 2012, 10 mins) – The author’s grandfather.
The language and gesture maintain relations but to be together, we need to listen. In this way, the son accompanied his father in the past, lives with him in the present and dreams for the future.
