Runtime: 9mins

Psalm for the Mismemoried is a story of an ancestor named Future who travels across time & space to take mismemoried* ancestors home from historical sites of medical harm. She is arriving at Central State Hospital in Milledgeville, Georgia, to meet Hattie, a former patient and worker who was left behind. The future has come to take her home. Filmed in 360° video, this experimental and historical drama takes place on the actual campus of the Central State Hospital in Milledgeville, GA.

*Mismemoried is a new word meaning-the missed and the lost memory of ancestors when they disappeared and were taken from generations.
