Description
Pelmanism
Noun [mass noun]
- a system of memory training
- a card game in which matching pairs must be selected from memory from cards laid face down
A young woman steps reluctantly from the train platform, arriving to visit the estranged father she has been running from for over two years. What follows are fragments of family life, Gala's memories of her father from childhood through to young adulthood. These disparate strands coalesce to reveal the complex bitterness and love shared between one young girl and her father, leading to what could be a heart-breaking and explosive reunion. Pelmanism is a razor-sharp portrait of mental illness and its impact on those around you.
