The chapter discusses the question how should we - and how we ought to - "remember" someone else's trauma. Teaching trauma in translation - linguistic and cultural - exacerbates the condition of distance and reveals the broader concern for universalization on victims' specific suffering. Different films in general and some films in specific engage issues of memory, both visually and narratively. The authors of this chapter have asked freshman and sophomore students to analyze and consider these questions. Class participants were working through foundational issues of cinema scholarship and contemplating a more contemporary turn toward depictions of memory and memory lapses in film.
