CGiii Comment

While many journalists have approached the serious subject of Alzheimer's disease, this intimate documentary hour addresses the illness with considerable warmth and humor. Often talking directly to the camera, Producer Deborah Hoffmann fondly reconstructs the life and decline of her mother, Doris Hoffmann. As Doris's memory slips away, the viewer comes to understand how the frustrating illness can be handled with love and dignity.
