On 24th January 1954, Mamaddi Jaunarena boarded a ship in Le Havre bound for New York. She was 22 years old and all she knew was where to meet the lady for whom she was to work as a maid.
Renacuajos
Blanca Camell, Spain, 2023, 15 min, digital, Spanish, French, Catalan, Spanish subtitiles.
In the early 2000s, when I was a pre-teen, I travelled with my family to Navarre. Twenty years later I'm looking for the photos of this trip and I can't find them. Starting out from a family story, Renacuajos (which means little squirts - or tadpoles) reflects on the transmission of family memories and how family pictures accumulate. How do I film or photograph my son? What memories am I leaving him with the images I'm constantly creating? How do we relate to family images?

This happens at different times, in different places.
