An octogenarian woman transitions to life in assisted living as she contends with her conflicting relationship to herself and her caregivers amidst her shifting memory, age identity and desires.

"A stunning, sensory-forward portrait of a woman with dementia...The emotional core of Friedland's film comes from Chalfant's masterful performance...Feels radical in its quiet honesty, and breathtaking in its dignified compassion" Little White Lies

"A lovingly told coming-of-old-age film... Exquisite... Wondrous" Sight & Sound

"Friedland, who also wrote the film's script, is not given over to histrionics or blaring displays of emotion, instead asking us to follow Ruth and experience the world through her eyes. The impact is profound." IndieWire
