Now, then, forever
NEW DOCS
Photographer and filmmaker Eugene Richards offers unmediated scrutiny of a Good Samaritan Center in Nebraska; his expressive camera seeks the unexpected to depict elderly residents. We see particular details in close-up, such as hands, feet, mouths, and wheelchairs, as part of a nursing home environment that functions as a waiting room for death. Now, then, forever unfolds by degrees, structured by a series of musical episodes, bringing an understanding of the machinery and rhythm of daily life in a senior care facility. NK
