Love. Poetry. God

About This Movie

The documentary is not just a recounting of her thoughts but feels like a conversation, drifting through her memories and reflections on her children and her connection to the divine. The pacing is contemplative, letting her words linger, echoing the weight of her experiences. Gunārs Binde's photographs weave through the narrative, transforming moments into visual poetry that complements her storytelling. There's a rawness in her vulnerability that makes the film resonate. It’s more than just her story; it’s a meditation on creativity and the human condition as she faces the inevitable in her final year.
