The project uses the grand historical, literary and cinematic traditions of the family saga, and was developed by the artists mixing their own genealogies along with those of affluent 20th century families, both real and fictional, such as the Kennedys, the Magnificent Ambersons and the Rothschilds. Alongside two short videos, a museological display of ghostly objects are the focus points for the narrative, each possessing a short written description of their role in a significant memory. Narrated by the youngest-born Monarch L\u0026ouml;vy-Singh, the work proposes not a single, coherent story of his family or the century through which they lived, but rather one that is multiple and fragmentary.
