Synopsis

A tough yet gentle drama about love and life as it comes to an end.

The last days of an elderly couple stricken by dementia.   Using an unusual minimalist set-up and an unsettling slowness, Gaspar Noé films the tragedy of old age with shocking sobriety.

Largely improvised, the film captures the degeneration of a couple caught between loneliness, fear, pettiness, the desolation of living and the desperate anticipation of death.
