“In Part” by Matt Kingcroft

George and Anne go to their estranged father's apartment after he commits suicide. As they clean up the place, they discover more than they expected.

FROM THE DIRECTOR:

“IN PART started with the idea of just wanting to watch people clean an apartment. At the time, I'd been thinking about an odd bunch of things: how scientific discovery can sometimes open the world up to new terrors; how grief is so hard to understand or pin down, a whole world unto itself; how the mundane and banal things of our present lives can reveal or point to something more intangible and immaterial; how family can feel so close and yet entirely unknowable at the same time. I'm not sure I got all that in, but from those ideas, and the desire to shoot something very simply, came IN PART. 

The title stems from 1 Corinthians 13:12: "For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known." That Bible verse has been plumbed for titles by many other filmmakers including Ingmar Bergman, but I think it acts as a sort of key to the film, one that was a real joy to make with my friends Derek Janzen, Rebecca deBoer, Cory Thibert, Drew Harris, and Jordan Klassen, all of whom did beautiful work.”
