Mining Memory and Resistance Towards New Documentary Forms

No data is associated with this publication.
Abstract

Ivy Ridge is an experimental documentary film that uses collaboration and memory to create a psychological depiction of life inside therapeutic boarding schools. In an act of resistance, four former students from the Academy at Ivy Ridge return to the defunct facility in upstate NY to retroactively tell their stories. The abandoned building contained personal files which were used in the recounting of the events that occurred.
