Remake
Ross McElwee has shot footage from his own life since the 1970s. His camera serves as both instrument and confession. His son, Adrian, was born into this practice, and was occasionally filmed from infancy through years that got harder. In 2016, Adrian died of an overdose at 27. Drawing from decades of footage shot by both Ross and by Adrian, who was a budding filmmaker, Remake asks questions that could only come after: What did the camera capture, what did it miss?
