A Photographic Memory

Director Rachel Elizabeth Seed will be present for post-screening Q&A moderated by Dr. Sarah Thornton!

A Photographic Memory is an intimate, genre-bending portrait of filmmaker Rachel Elizabeth Seed’s attempt to piece together a picture of her mother, an avant-garde journalist she never knew. Uncovering the vast archive Sheila Turner Seed produced, including lost interviews with iconic photographers Henri Cartier-Bresson, Gordon Parks, Cecil Beaton, Bruce Davidson, Lisette Model, and others, the film explores memory, legacy, and stories left untold.
