The Personal and the Profane: Ross McElwee's Quest to Remake Reality Ross McElwee's latest film, Remake, is a poignant exploration of grief, identity, and the blurred lines between documentary and fiction.
At its core, Remake is a deeply personal project that delves into the complexities of father son relationships and the enduring legacy of McElwee's own filmmaking career.
The film's premise begins with Hollywood's offer to remake McElwee's 1986 classic, Sherman's March, as a mainstream comedy.
