Superheroes without Superpowers (2019)
The main (super)hero of Beatrice Baldacci’s documentary is a person depicted as the sum of her memories. The story of the director and her family is told in the first person, with home VHS recordings that show both Beatrice’s mother and Beatrice as a child taking on the role of an agent of memory. Outdated technology transforms the events of twenty years ago into an archaeological object.

It is a performances centric movie
I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
