Life, death and making meaning are the heart of this beautiful and often very funny film about ageing artist couple Maggie and Joel who, after an accident, face the inevitability of impermanence and seek a deep peace in their relationship while they still can.
When artist Maggie Barrett (75) breaks her femur, her husband Joel Meyerowitz (84), a world-famous photographer, becomes her caregiver. In the shadow of mortality, each with a long and dramatic life behind them, the hard truths of life together provoke in Maggie and Joel an attempt to find a shared inner-peace while there is still time.
The screening on Friday the 21st of March was followed by a Q&A with filmmakers Manon Ouimet and Jacob Perlmutter and film participants Maggie Barrett and Joel Meyerowitz. Hosted by film writer, Elena Lazic.
