TIME PASSAGES | IN-PERSON (3/21)
Chicago Filmmakers (map) | Friday March 21, 2025 | 7:00 PM
In the final months of his mother Elaine’s late-stage dementia, as a pandemic rages across the globe, filmmaker Kyle Henry time travels via his family archive and his own memories to heal past wounds. Theirs is a large Texan family, but as one of Elaine's primary caregivers, the gay son shares a unique and complicated bond with his mother. Charting his mother’s early life and dashed desires through to years of motherhood and self-sacrifice, and tracing their relationship to its inevitable end, Time Passages playfully reckons with grief, conflict and loss of control. Beneath the Kodachrome smiles and grainy Super-8 home movies, Henry unearths difficult truths as an act of generational healing that becomes a testament to love, legacy and those things that carry us through life’s most challenging times.
Chicago filmmaker Kyle Henry will be in attendance for a Q&A after the screening.
