Abstract

This 9 minute and 28 second video essay, prepared for the conference ‘Teaching Women’s Filmmaking’ in 2021 takes a literal approach to the conference theme. Using the film The Souvenir (Joanna Hogg, 2019) as an inspiration, the video essay explores the unexpected generational overlaps between learning to become a filmmaker as a young woman and then later teaching young women filmmakers in the university classroom. This personal video essay explores the process of becoming a film director through learning and teaching by valuing a pedagogy of, in Hogg’s words, ‘one’s own breath.’
