Director Jason LaMotte "was profoundly affected by his neighborhood library in Houston, Tex.--and the magical feeling it carried was the inspiration behind his new film The Library," the Guardian reported
"The story told in The Library initially came from wanting to explore the relationship between memory and place," LaMotte wrote. "I have strong recollections of my neighborhood library in Houston, Tex., in the U.S. I can recall the layout, where certain sections of books were, the smells, and the sounds.... It's a film about first love, about libraries and the writing they are home to, and about the sadness that surrounds dementia. I hope you enjoy watching our film as much as we enjoyed making it!"
