Our Rangsot

Synopsis

Set in Rangsot, this film unravels how memory, play, and storytelling endure through voice, gesture, and communal presence. Songs once sung to lull children, tales whispered by parents, and games played with sticks, stones, or dragonflies re-emerge as elders recount them—sometimes laughing, sometimes grieving. The film reflects on how the apparatus mediates these transmissions. Between oral history and the camera’s framing, it explores how memory is shaped, reenacted, and perhaps even transformed through the production and consumption of technical images.

    As a young man born in the early 2000s, I still knew the kind of afternoons filled with the joy of being outside with friends rather than being stuck with gadgets. Starting from games that use some equipment, such as marbles, kites, or bekel, to those without any equipment, such as hide and seek, garasin,…
