The Souvenir Part II
The eagerly awaited sequel to Joanna Hogg's semi-autobiographical The Souvenir, The Souvenir Part II (which also stands alone as a singular piece) begins where we left off, with film student Julie (Honor Swinton Byrne) navigating and processing the loss of her caustic older lover while also pushing against the constraints of the independent film scene in 1980s London. Through Hogg's intimate lens, we follow Julie's journey through fleeting relationships, living with fretful parents, and ultimately her attempt to come to terms with her grief through the singular power of cinema.
