Memorabilia

Memorabilia

As an older gay man lies dying in a hospital room, he tries to remember all of his past lovers. Over the years, he had filmed many of his lovers as a way to capture them, but now the films are disintegrating – fading away just like his memories. Shot entirely on super8 film, this touching new film incorporates archival footage shot by Charles Lum in the 1970s and '80s (including footage from his time as an exchange student in Norway), archival footage shot by Todd Verow in the 1980s and '90s, as well as new footage by Verow. With a script based on Lum's stories and cruising diaries, and stories written by Verow, Memorabilia is a beautiful visual homage to love, as well as a testament to its creators' close friendship and mutual understanding in how to tell a story. Charles Lum never saw this film come to life, but he would no doubt have been proud of the result.
