The Brief
A self-initiated documentary, born from a simple wish, to preserve a moment with elders Yvette and Jean, and to keep a record of the life and quiet philosophy of two people who have shared almost seventy years together.

The Film
A series of filmed conversations in their lifelong home. Just their words, their silences, and the room they have lived in for most of their lives. They speak about old age, daily life, illness, memory, fear, death, and above all the love that holds it all together. A short film shaped by presence and listening, where the universal emerges from the deeply personal.
