E-Ticket
Frantic re-cataloguing of a personal archive and a vehicle for the re-birth of forgotten images in 35mm still photographs, obsessively tape-spliced together in evolving rhythmic patterns.

Mike Hoolboom reflects in 27 brief scenes on the life of his father, who died in June 2017. Using home movies, snapshots and found footage, he creates a portrait of a exceedingly clever, yet evanescent father figure haunted by the war that sent his own father to a concentration camp. Ultimately the family moved to Canada. This political history, intertwining dreams and personal experience, seems loose and associative, but first impressions can be deceiving.
