Vergeet Me NietDavid Sieveking
Gretel has Alzheimers. When her son David returns home for a few weeks to assist his father in taking care of her, he decides to make a portrait of his mother. He documents her deteriorating condition, but also tells the story of her turbulent past as a women's rights activist and free love in the sixties. The contrast with her current situation is stark. David and his father both feel guilty when moving Gretel into a care facility is the only option left. "Forget Me Not" is a very personal yet universal film, moving but surprisingly unsentimental and at times even humorous.
