Mum

A tender look at the relationship between women, whose roles has been reversed by time. A daughter takes care of her 98-year-old mother, but their bond is tested by fading memory. The women cling to memories and skills. Melodies from childhood and pieces of memory bring solace. Ordinary activities take on new meanings and the presence of the other person becomes a source of strength in the face of the inevitable.
