The screening on Friday 28 March in Screen 3 will be followed by a Q&A with directors Jacob Perlmutter, Manon Ouimet, as well as Maggie and Joel.

When artist Maggie Barrett (75) breaks her femur, her husband Joel Meyerowitz (84), a world-famous photographer, becomes her caregiver. In the shadow of mortality, each with a long and

dramatic life behind them, the hard truths of life together provoke in Maggie and Joel an attempt to find a shared inner-peace while there is still time.

The Garden Cinema View:

Can the marriage of two fiercely creative and independent people work in the long run? Especially when the two have experienced different levels of success with their work? And can happiness and attraction coincide with resentment and hidden grievances? These are the central questions that directorial duo (and partners in life) Manon Ouimet and Jacob Perlmutter explore in this quietly engaging documentary about Joel Meyerowitz and Maggie Barrett's relationship.

The catalyst for exploring the issues underlying the quiet surface of the couple's day-to-day existence is a serious accident that propels a meditation on mortality and the complexities of aging together.

Against the backdrop of stunning Tuscan scenery and immaculate house interiors, the film features Maggie Barrett's elegant piano playing interspersed with examples of Meyerowitz's breathtaking photography, which alone is worth the viewing.
