Joanna Hogg | UK | 2021 | 107m
with Honor Swinton Byrne, Jaygann Ayeh, Richar Ayoade, Ariane Labed, James Spencer Ashworth, Charlie Heaton, Joe Alwyn, Harris Dickinson, Tilda Swinton

In the aftermath of her tumultuous relationship with a charismatic and manipulative older man, Julie (Honor Swinton Byrne) begins to untangle her fraught love for him in making her graduation film, sorting fact from his elaborately constructed fiction. Joanna Hogg's shimmering story of first love and a young woman's formative years, The Souvenir Part II is a portrait of the artist that transcends the halting particulars of everyday life: a singular, alchemic mix of memoir and fantasy.

"Ms. Hogg has outdone herself with an even stronger film about grief, self-discovery, the daunting uncertainties of the creative process and, before and after everything else, the mysterious power of the movie medium." -Joe Morgenstern, The Wall Street Journal

"Though fully distinct in its thematic and aesthetic fixations, The Souvenir Part II abuts its predecessor to form one of the medium’s most intimate, expressive portraits of the artist as a young woman — a mirror tilted just enough away from the filmmaker that the audience, too, can catch itself in the glass." -Guy Lodge, Variety

"As vulnerable as its predecessor and textured with the same velvet sense of becoming, “Part II” adds new layers of depth and distance to the looking glass of Hogg’s self-reflection." -David Ehrlich, IndieWire
