Twilight of a life is a unique documentary that shows optimistic approch of old age. This is a story of a son, the film director, who visits his dying 94-year-old mother at the hospital everyday and both of them spend their quality time together. The beauty of this film lies in the director's mother who is funny, cheerful and intelligent. She is brave when facing death. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/04/23 Full Review jojo o This documentary is both humbly and beautifully filmed. A son records the last months of his mother as a poetic ode to life and filial love. Sometimes I was mesmerized by the wisdom and witty jokes of that 94 year old lady. Other times I was moved by the son's dedication. A must see. My favorite scene: the hands choreography. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
