As dementia erodes a woman's ability to communicate her inner life, her husband and daughter struggle to act in her best interest, navigating love and the fragile boundaries between care, protection, and autonomy.
Amanda and her stepfather, Martin, struggle with a moral issue that divides them. Has Amanda’s mother, who’s suffering from advanced dementia, lost the ability to make critical decisions in her own best interests? And if so, who’s responsible for making such a determination? As Amanda and Martin are forced to make increasingly difficult choices, the repercussions soon spiral out of their control.
