Complaints of a Dutiful
Daughter
Director Deborah Hoffmann presents a life-affirming exploration of
family relations, aging and change, the meaning of memory, and love
in her video chronicling the various stages of her mother's Alzheimer's
Disease. With profound insight and a healthy dose of levity she allows
us to see the difficulties they encounter brought about by the progression
of the disease, but we also come to see their ability to finally live
in the moment. In an ironic and heartwarming turn of events, her mother
eventually forgets about her prejudice against Deborah's life as a lesbian
and joyfully embraces her longtime domestic partner.
