Chantal Akerman's final film No Home Movie may also be her most intimate and personal work: a record of her relationship with her mother over the course of the latter's last year of life.

Through conversations at the kitchen table, webcam chats and shots of lonely landscapes, Akerman constructs a touching, melancholy portrait of her mother, a Holocaust survivor, and also of her own impending grief.

In documenting some of their last conversations, No Home Movie is above all a film about love – specifically, the love shared by two women, unbound by physical distance and mortality.
