About This Show
Photo Play is a rumination on the power of personal snapshots: why we take them, how they map the present to the past, and what happens to the ones we alter, delete, or burn. In a shared subconscious – the crossroads of memory, belief, and speculation – family members and chosen family grapple with finding shared truth in the pages of a dusty photo album.
