Directed by Rea Tajiri • 2022 • United States
Starring Rose Noda, Rea Tajiri

In this moving and original reflection on mortality and transformation, Rea Tajiri partners with her mother, Rose Tajiri Noda, to create a film about the final sixteen years of her life as a person living with dementia. Tajiri shows us how to enter the world of a person living with dementia in order to connect through listening, art, and music. A delicate interweaving of past and present, parenting and being parented, the film reflects on the reliability of memory and the desire to reinvent one's own life when memories fail us. It is a poignant meditation on mothers and daughters and the abiding strength of the unique relationship between them.
