SYNOPSIS
Madeleine is 86. For the last five years she has lived at Château Beaurivage, a retirement home in Montréal-Nord. But when her mental state deteriorates and her memory starts to play tricks on her, the lady must move even though she had planned to live in the same apartment until the end. In this poignant documentary, Denys Desjardins explores a new facet of memory through a disarming and intimate portrait of his mother and her struggles with aging.
