    A collaboration between spoken word poet Leah Thorn and filmmaker Ewan Golder, “watch” uses “Super 8 film”, poetry, storytelling and photography to slowly reveal the centrality of memory to identity and the impact of dementia on a father/daughter relationship. With a haunting original soundscape by Lemez Lovas and Moshik Kop, “watch” is a deeply personal and moving film exploring loss, vulnerability, survival and memorialisation.
