Writer-director Joanna Hogg’s newest film, The Eternal Daughter, is a Gothic-inspired ghost story set in a fog-shrouded Welsh hotel.
Julie has a limited amount of time to make any strides in the relationship with her mother. There is this urgency and sense of panic. And in that moment when this honesty really spills out of her, she talks about her own mortality pressing down on her. It’s this idea of limit: They only have three nights. It’s feeling that it’s now or never. I think that the idea of the miniature is beautiful.
I think another aspect of the film that is really important is its setting in an inn, a hotel, rather than a home.Well, it’s a neutral space, so it allows for a way of being that is free of the home. So they can arrive as individuals, but then, of course, in navigating those three days it turns out they’re not individuals in this place. They’re caught up in family confusions. I generally like the setting of somewhere that is a mutual space.
? Is there a different intensity or extra dimensionality in taking on and dialoguing as multiple characters in a film?I find it completely, naturally fascinating. I’m doing a quick checklist in my mind. In a way, [these different characters] always end up being one portrait. For example, in, the identical twins were developed in relationship to one another. One goes one way, and the other goes another. But they are still an entity, if you like.
