A personal contribution to the collective memory.

Call Me Lola is a moving documentary by the acclaimed Israeli-American photo artist and documentary filmmaker Loli Kantor. She spent over twenty years trawling through the family archives of her Polish-born father, a doctor and political activist. Her mother Lola, who bears the same name as Kantor, takes centre stage: a woman who manifests herself through images and stories rather than direct memory. Family documents and photographs are shown together with new photo-based works, making the project a deeply personal reflection on the great upheavals of the 20th century, on war and displacement, love and loss, trauma and grief.
