Memories and Dreams

Memories and Dreams is a 1993 feature documentary film about actress Johanna Kilma-Ocenaskova, directed by Lynn-Maree Milburn. Part fairytale and part drama, the film tells a tale of loss and renewal in which romantic love is but one of many passions. Set almost entirely in Prague, it chronicles the life of Czech born actress Johanna Kilma-Ocenaskova, from a childhood of freedom and fantasy to the unexpected horrors of World War II and her eventual escape to Australia. The film relays her experience not only as a series of disconnected events, but a metaphysical exploration of the nature of personal memory. Every single frame is re-photographed, tinted or hand-painted. The film was developed from an original idea by director, Lynn-Maree Milburn.
