Marie-Lou directs a care facility where she champions a dignity-centered approach to elder care, clashing with resistant staff. When she meets Mari, a Japanese theater director facing cancer, the two form a transformative friendship that challenges them both to confront mortality and meaning.
Cindy says
Hamaguchi's three-hour meditation on mortality and connection is patient, humane, and occasionally slow-burn in ways that test your devotion. Efira and Okamoto find real tenderness in their unlikely friendship, and the film's refusal to sentimentalize aging or illness feels genuinely radical—even if it occasionally meanders into territory that could've been tighter.
