Plot synopsis
An aging couple takes care of their 96-year-old mother, a woman struggling to remember the details of her life. Although she hasn’t left the small apartment she’s lived in for 20 years, we see beauty in her relationship with the world and the people around her. Her heartbreaking realizations throughout her day remind us of how precious our time is. Shannon Hanmer
