Everyday is Alzheimer's

About This Movie

Everyday is Alzheimer's is a raw, intimate look into life after a diagnosis. The film, directed by Yuka Sakaguchi, captures the slow unraveling of daily routines as her mother’s memory fades. There’s a palpable sense of loss, but also moments of tenderness that emerge amidst the struggle. The pacing feels reflective, almost meditative, allowing you to sit with the reality of this experience. It's not just another Alzheimer's documentary; it’s steeped in personal storytelling that feels both heavy and hopeful. The practical effects are minimal, relying instead on real-life emotions and interactions. You can sense the authenticity in Sakaguchi’s performance and her family's journey, which sets this film apart from others in the genre.
