Anatomy of a Life

When her father is diagnosed with dementia, a filmmaker turns the camera on their shared caregiving journey through America’s flawed eldercare system. What begins as an intimate documentary transforms into a hybrid world of whimsical fiction, where her father’s unfinished novel offers an escape from their caregiving reality. Through humor, heartbreak, and imagination, Anatomy of a Life is a tender portrait of love and loss, and a timely call to rethink how we care.
