This article aims to propose an analysis of Atom Egoyan’s film Remember (2015) in order to recognize the vitality and importance of the classical tradition in contemporary filmmaking. The author suggests an interpretation that identifies and enhances the relationship between the plot of Remember and ancient drama. The story and quest of Zev Guttman, an elderly survivor from the Auschwitz concentration camp who has been sent by his friend Max Rosembaum to find and eliminate their ancient executioner, seems particularly suitable for such a study.

Abstract

This article aims to propose an analysis of Atom Egoyan’s film Remember (2015) in order to recognize the vitality and importance of the classical tradition in contemporary filmmaking. The author suggests an interpretation that identifies and enhances the relationship between the plot of Remember and ancient drama. The story and quest of Zev Guttman, an elderly survivor from the Auschwitz concentration camp who has been sent by his friend Max Rosembaum to find and eliminate their ancient executioner, seems particularly suitable for such a study.
