“Hillary Carrigan’s editing lends the film its seamless emotional flow.”
“His camera lingers when it needs to, giving silence and stillness the same narrative weight as dialogue... abstraction and clarity with remarkable control. Scenes shift subtly between memory and present time, and his use of fragmented editing (courtesy of Hillary Carrigan)... evokes the fragility of memory without ever becoming disorienting.”
“In the editing room, I uncovered another layer to the story: Grandma’s quiet but profound choice to live in Sam’s world as much as her own. Her willingness to step into his delusions spoke volumes about love and sacrifice. It made me realize I wasn’t just making a film about dementia.”
