This award-winning documentary follows the Irish street artist Asbestos as he and his family learn to navigate his mother’s diagnosis of Alzheimer’s and cope with her fading memories. The film premiered at the Dublin International Film Festival 2024 where it won the Audience Choice award.
Production company and distributor Motherland explains: “In collaboration with Asbestos, the film opens an honest conversation about the delicate nature of memory. Through the artist’s process, we establish that even though Alzheimers brings elements of disintegration and destruction, we can never truly lose a loved one if we hold on to our collective memories.”
The film’s production was supported by The Arts Council’s Reel Art scheme.
