Every sentence about grandma is like a loss. She didn't talk much - certainly not about what moved her. It is only after her death that I use this film to search for how war and violence affect relationships and create silence. In everyday life, in the household and in the family. Digging out, looking for continuities, creating continuities lies this film’s soul. A tender portrait that takes us back to a time, which still resonates with us today.

The future of care. When we sat around a table with cookies and coffee in a nursing home to discuss this topic, I looked around and saw puzzled faces. It concerns us all, yet it’s hard to envision, our society is in love with the Now and Youth. We are afraid of it. So just the mere inviting this elephant into the room, bringing together people who receive or work in care, with scientists and me, the filmmaker, is already a step that feels important, one plank of wood to bridge a gap.
