306 Hollywood screening at the NFSA
- This event has passed.
Siblings Jonathon and Elan Bogarin recorded interviews of their grandmother Annette Ontell until her death at age 93. After she passed the siblings returned to her now-abandoned farmhouse at 306 Hollywood Avenue, New Jersey. As they sort through decades of accumulated objects, they uncover memories of her loving personality, fussy habits and the pride she took in the family’s Jewish heritage.
The film meditates on loss, inheritance and the emotional weight of material culture. It considers how people assign meaning to everyday items and how those stories linger long after a loved one is gone.
‘By treating objects as emotional artefacts rather than evidence, 306 Hollywood finds a poetic language for grief, showing how memory clings to the everyday long after people disappear.’ – Guy Lodge, Variety
