My Furniture Has Wheels (2021)

My Furniture Has Wheels explores themes of dementia inspired storytelling, love, hate, pain, regret, death, familial solidarity and ultimately defiance in the face of the inevitable. The film's protagonist, during his last days, tells his tales and memories directly to the camera. These stories become motion and are reenacted by his family members (ex-wife, two sons, seven grandchildren,, a son's significant other, a great-grandchild and a son-in-law). The balance between family lore and seared photographic memory creates what William Faulkner has been telling us for the last seventy years, "The past is never dead. It's not even past." Unsettling, strange, lighthearted, and often moving, the production explores memory, a life, and how to live it, through a combination of documentary and experimental filmmaking.
