MEMORY is an independent artist-driven motion picture company specializing in producing, curating and distributing innovative, thought-provoking works that push the formal boundaries of their medium. Focused on discovering and mentoring new diverse voices, MEMORY creates and showcases these new compositions on and off-line.

A family's home movies document a desperate crime spree and a bid to outrun the consequences…Or do they? In this meta-fiction thriller, an average family’s youtube videos have been edited to resemble something quite different. An extraordinary feat of editing, a provocative parable of the pursuit of happiness, and a disturbing demonstration of the mutability of the stories we share in the Internet age, FRAUD defies simplistic definition.

              Reviews

              An incredible example of the power of editing.

              "It’s amazing the story that these filmmakers could tell with found footage. Documentary as a whole is deeply misunderstood, and this film is one of the best examples of that."

              Joshua L. (5/5)

              Fraud

              "Memory continues to put out exceptional release with their catalog. Although this film didnt exactly grip me the way their other narrative features did, I still enjoyed the ride."

              Charles S. (4/5)

              F For Fake

              "Interesting experiment but does not end up being wholly successful. This is an interesting watch for fans of experimental cinema but not something I feel I will be compelled to revisit."

              Shawn M. (3/5)

              Incredibly Cool

              "A really cool release. Great packaging and design that fits the enigmatic and obscure film. Awesome thicker booklet than usual, and good special features. Maybe too expensive for the length of the film, but it is a very bespoke, cool release."

              Matthew M. (5/5)

              Pretty crazy he found Youtube

              "Pretty crazy he found Youtube family footage and edited it into a crime story. An exercise in great editing. It was nice getting a few special features into the making of it cause I was very interested. Short but sweet!"

              Bryan K. (5/5)

              Very Interesting Artsy Flick

              "This one is different. Artsy approach and very fascinating. I recommend this if you are looking for something different."

              Jeffrey L. (4/5)

              Fraud - a modern film

              "I just loved the concept of found footage put to use in a new context. The result is mind blowing. It felt so real although I knew it was fraud. Another great release from Memory Highly recommended."

              Hansi L. (5/5)

              A really interesting experiment in

              "A really interesting experiment in the manipulation of found footage."

              Dave C. (3/5)

              Family commits fraud shown through home video clips

              "A struggling family commits fraud shown through a montage of found footage style home video clips. Interesting to check out but I probably wouldn't rewatch it."

              Kev B. (5/5)

              Cinema Magic Trick

              "It boggles my mind how this worked so well and played so smoothly as a found footage soft-thriller, especially after finding out how this was made. One of my favorite discoveries of the year. Highly recommended."
