This Cycle That Was Passed Down To Me 2025

Directed by Katelyn Rebelo

During a period of isolation, the filmmaker returned to recordings of stories told by her grandmother, who shares episodes from her youth without sentimentality. Using home movies from her grandmother's life and her own as the base for handmade animation loops, she repetitively and obsessively listened and drew, while lingering in the feeling of what it means to be stuck.
