The incredible memory of the deceased grandfather (original title: L’incroyable souvenir du grand-père défunt) is a french short film that I’ve written and directed in 2024.

Céleste, a 15-year-old teenager, visits her grandfather Émile’s grave and discovers a holographic replica of him, created by a company named MemorIA. However, this replica begins to lose its memories due to a missing file. With the help of her grandmother Viviane and the mysterious Fabrice, an employee at MemorIA, Céleste must find and restore the lost memory to save the digital version of her grandfather. Throughout their quest, they discover that the missing memory is linked to a deeply buried secret.

The film is not yet public but a link can be provided upon request.
