poignant and eloquent

I was lucky enough to watch a screening of this film at the Magnolia Film Festival in Mississippi and thought it was extremely powerful. Very well made short film dealing with letting go and the shifting of the caretaker role from parent to child. The acting was excellent and told volumes with the minimal dialogue. Congratulations to the writer for not saying too much or too little. Some feelings are bigger than what you have words for and the things they don't say to each other could break the heart. Beautiful muted colors and light came together to paint a wonderful and deeply moving picture. I was grateful for that last walk with the two characters. Everyone involved should be proud.
