Introduction
Ada (2018) is an experimental documentary directed by Christine Margaret Wu. It tells the story of a young girl, in grief from her grandmother’s death, distanced from her loss by observing, questioning and analysing herself as a fictional character.
The film reveals a person’s self-reflection upon the recurring question: What makes me, me? The topic is explored through the many memories, dreams, imaginations and travels in Ada’s personal life, and her analysis of the possible elements and influences from the outer world that make her who she is.
