Palaces of Memory 2025

A JOURNEY THROUGH MEMORIES LOST AND FOUND

Directed by Matlab Mukhtarov

Against the backdrop of his hometown and momentous historical events, the director seeks the answer to a seemingly simple question: What is my very first memory? As the film progresses, the audiovisual topography of memory transforms into a labyrinth where trauma and disappointment may lurk around every corner, and yet we continue to navigate through it.
