Offcuts Still

Ten years after the death of their eldest child, an aging family confronts conflicting memories of the infamous institution where he lived. The redacted life of a boy becomes the subject of collective reckoning as scenes from the past unspool.

Offcuts lays bare the disunity between disability and the American nuclear family. The hyper-personal study of one near-erased individual stands in for a much broader omission. Are we each implicated in the erasure of others when we divert our attention, filter out, touch up, and tape over?

The film is currently in production.
