This film is followed by a prerecorded Q&A.

Is it ever too late to find love? In this portrait of life in a Calgary seniors’ home, we meet six residents who refuse to face the last chapter of life alone. As they struggle with declining health, limited mobility and dwindling finances, they find that the one thing they can rely on is the love they share with their new partners.

Director Dominique Keller embeds herself in the lives of her subjects, having moved into the seniors’ facility while making this film. Her dedication pays off in the intimate moments she is able to capture, a mark of the trust between filmmaker and subjects. We see not only the residents’ daily struggles but also their moments of shared joy. The film shows that even when life has taken so much else, it cannot take away our capacity for love. -JM
