We live with stories. And it's hard for us to give up on these stories, which provide us our identity, a way of understanding ourselves. Reflections from three successive generations are dusted off and presented as remaining fragments. An attempt to archive thoughts on familial history, narrative traditions, human perception and "the story" from known and unknown sources. "There is history behind it and the history becomes the story and the story becomes the pattern and the pattern becomes rigidity."

As two growing years pass, Don Zeghers - farmer from Holland, Manitoba - phases out his multi-generational family farm. With experimental photography on Super 8, 16mm and digital mediums, his son Aaron Zeghers follows this life change. The dissolution of the family farm is seen both intimately but also as a microcosm of the modern industrialized world. Nature is contrasted with industrial might in this sentimental and existential portrait of one's own family.

A film about the childhood heroes you so admired, and now don't speak to. Partially hand-processed and all optically printed, the Story of Thomas Edison is a mélange of audio bites that form a libelous biography of a famous inventor.
