How much can you sacrifice for a loved one who has forgotten you?
Remember Me is an intimate monologue that tells the story of Emma, a deaf BSL user who lives alone with her Father who is also deaf. We first meet Emma nursing her shin with an ice pack. Signing directly to the camera, Emma tells us about the violence she endures and how it all came as such a shock. We soon realise it’s not domestic abuse she’s subject to but the unpredictable outbursts of her Father who has dementia.
