Gumshoes and eerie sunlit avenues, Martha Ronk sets out on a totally new caper in this meditation on her adopted city of Los Angeles. In a place where memory is inevitably lost and history perpetually bunk, Ronk looks at daily life in which it is most difficult to separate the unfamiliar from its opposite. The Unfamiliar Familiar would do one of L.A.’s patron saints, Raymond Chandler, most proud.
