    • Synopsis
    • “A Marriage” is a creative documentary about a wedding that took place in the 1950s. The narrative is built around the confrontation of memories: the subjective memory, of the bride as the main character, as well as the memories of the bride's daughter who is director of this film, both against the concrete memory which is represented by home movies, family photos, love letters and the family's house. The effects of the passage of time on these objects becomes part of the narrative’s language.
