A poignant, subtle story about love and a fast-progressing disease depicted in the form of a road movie. A man, whose name is Paul, is lost and knocks on the window of Leandra’s car. They are a loving couple but he can remember less and less. He is only 47 and suffers from Alzheimer’s disease. He will soon move to a care centre but he does not want it at all and convinces Leandra to take a trip to the seaside to spend their last holidays together. The director and screenwriter, Lisa Gertsch, together with actors, Oriana Schrage and Michael Neuenschwander, are able to present this popular film subject with freshness and charm.
