ABOUT LOST/FOUND PT. 2:
Being found involves discovering new information, a new form of life, a new place, or a new identity. This pandemic has caused many of us to lose things that we never thought we’d have to let go. For each of us, our personal situations may differ, but all of us feel a newly invigorated necessity to discover a new meaning to the things around us. In such uncertainty, we undergo an ever-changing flux of discovery and disappearance. Sometimes that which seems to have disappeared returns to us. Sometimes that which we cherish slips between our fingers. This collection of four short documentary films tells diverse stories of discovery and makes us consider what it means to be found.
