A venerable 91 years old man, living in an old people home.
The visit of his 42 years old granddaughter.
Her visit purpose is more than precise - to obtain explanations about a dark part of their relation from 32 years ago. Beautiful acting, well crafted dialogue. Fair construction of tension and aspects of emotions. But the virtue of film is not the transcription of real talk but the provocative ball of questions, apparences, old facts, affirmations of both characters , states and perspectives.
What represents an abuse?
Can be it forgeted _ can be forgiven ?
Can it modelling a life ? How ? Why the question comes so late ? Why the granddaugher keeps the secret by her parents ? Why today , a so old man is front to his past gestures ? What represents that gestures for him, in real sense ? His granddaugher was the only touched child by him ?
In short, cold, precise crafted work , offering not exactly a story but a serious fist of very delicate questions.
