In search for memory

Petra Seeger's In Search of Memory (Auf der Suche nach dem Gedächtnis) is based in part on Kandel's 2006 autobiography of the same name. A loose collection of talking-head interviews, fly-on-the-wall observations, and dramatic re-enactments, it jumps back and forth in time, depicting Kandel's childhood in '30s Vienna and his present life as a Columbia University professor.
