The Eternal Daughter

OUT OF COMPETITION The third collaboration between Joanna Hogg and Tilda Swinton, The Eternal Daughter could be seen as a spiritual sequel to the two-parter Souvenir, but with a less operatic, though equally personal, edge. The story is that of a middle-aged filmmaker accompanied by her elderly mother on a hotel stay with a family connection. Here, the daughter wishes to make a film about her mother and the inevitable investigation of the past reveals long hidden ghosts.
