Remember and go back in time

Following a first viewing, ask the questions in the “Question the film” section so that the students understand the subject: an old lady goes back in her memories to her childhood. It's a game called "Memory sprint, a fast game to remember", which is the trigger, or perhaps simply the attic of the house which is full of memories.

First identify the different stages of the old lady's memory. The still elderly lady runs but without her cane (at the beginning of the film, she needs her cane), becomes a young girl again and jumps from a house, runs in the forest, on a bridge, on a plane, becomes a child and continues running in the company of a cat, arrives in the same attic as at the beginning of the film (same coat rack....) to meet her friends, her family perhaps.

An initial brainstorm will allow students to state orally in front of the whole class their oldest memory, striving to provide as much detail as possible. More than a period, a day, ask the students to describe a moment of a few seconds or minutes. At what age? Alone or with friends? Was it outside? Was it hot? A unique moment? Is it a good memory?

The same work can be reproduced with the best memories or, on the contrary, the worst.

The students will then choose 5 memories and formulate them orally and/or in writing according to the cycle. A presentation could be made in front of the whole class and, why not, followed by a debate: Why do I remember these moments in particular? Why did they stay in my memory?
