Audrey Benac uncovers a correspondence between her great-grandmother and a fellow poet in Sofia Bohdanowicz and Deragh Campbell’s poignant blending of family history and fiction. As she translates the letters at Harvard, Audrey (Campbell) digs into an intimate past while facing her own existentially troubled present. Through Audrey’s handling of the letters at the archive and discursive monologues that articulate her findings, the film traces the emotional movements that punctuate the research process.
