An older kind-natured woman looks for lyrical expression and natural beauty in a world of disease and muted compassion. The things people do are horrible. The things people do are wonderful. People lose and take and hurt and create.

It's a slow, rich film with a world class central performance and an ending that is so tonally perfect and quietly delivered that any missteps in film along the way are gratefully forgiven.
