Healing Memory
By Anna Mundet - Isabella Haid

Description: “Healing Memory" is a short film that features five personal stories from members of the Pelion Summer Lab cohort, written and cultivated during a workshop using the Birth Story Narratives Moreno Method. The playroom of Makrinitsa’s old schoolhouse is the site/sight of this shrine. Visitors are invited to craft and play with the children’s toys during the screening, engaging with both distant and tactile memories of childhood. These interactable objects do not leave the room after the screening ends, reflecting on how material forms, too, do not resist the passing of time. The birth narratives interrogate the ruination process that continues after birth: how the memory of birth is really felt, in some ways learned, and in many ways productive of a collective history. Participants develop a kinship with the specters of the playroom: the children who once animated this school. As a shrine, the space reactivates a process of constructive memory which does not envision decay as a corrupting force, but dynamic and heartfelt.
