Kamran Rathod’s drama film, from Nick Chang’s screenplay, is a poignant and deeply affecting examination of the complex relationship between a dementia-stricken mother and her daughter. The story follows Jules, beautifully portrayed by Cecily Bednard-Schmidt, as she grapples with the heartbreaking reality of her mother’s illness.

Marika Schaub delivers a powerful performance as the dementia sufferer who fights for her independence, portraying her struggles with sympathy and authenticity. The film’s willingness to confront the challenges of the situation is admirable, exploring the role-reversal at work in the mother-daughter relationship with sensitivity and grace.

The technical aspects of the film are also impressive, with Melhik Hailu’s cinematography capturing the fragility and vulnerability of both characters, adding texture with his artful craftsmanship.

Overall, Kamran Rathod’s film is a moving and thought-provoking piece of work that handles its sensitive and emotional subject matter with great care and delicacy. The open-ended conclusion reflects the ongoing mysteries and challenges of the disease, offering an ending that is as unresolved as real-life situations. A great film to watch that may offer viewers insight and empathy when dealing with someone suffering from dementia. Highly recommended.
