Join us in celebrating our one year anniversary since we’ve re-opened at UC San Diego Park & Market with a very special presentation of MEMORIA, the film we opened with in May of 2022. Guests will receive a complimentary soda, popcorn, and a small giveaway! 

Tagline: From the extraordinary mind of Palme D’or winning director Apichatpong Weerasethakul, and starring Academy Award winner Tilda Swinton, comes a bewildering drama about a Scottish woman, who, after hearing a loud ‘bang’ at daybreak, begins experiencing a mysterious sensory syndrome while traversing the jungles of Colombia.

Synopsis: Ever since being startled by a loud ‘bang’ at daybreak, Jessica (Tilda Swinton) is unable to sleep. In Bogotá to visit her sister, she befriends Agnes (Jeanne Balibar), an archaeologist studying human remains discovered within a tunnel under construction. Jessica travels to see Agnes at the excavation site. In a small town nearby, she encounters a fish scaler, Hernan (Elkin Diaz). They share memories by the river. As the day comes to a close, Jessica is awakened to a sense of clarity.

Critic Quotes:

“Memoria lulls you into its rhythms, gives you the sparse outlines of an intellectual framework, then hits you with the full weight of accumulated lyricism that must be pure cinema.” – Little White Lies

“It is cinema that, if you let it, can check our heartbeats, frustrate our minds and connect with our very souls.” – The Wrap

“Rarely have a filmmaker and performer been so completely on the same page as Tilda Swinton and Apichatpong Weerasethakul are here.” – RogerEbert.com

‘Designed and deserving to be seen big and loud, Memoria is a hypnotic, unquantifiable, occasionally impenetrable sonic odyssey from a unique cinematic voice.” -Empire Magazine
