Isabella

January 2015 •English

This film aims to capture the stories of the aging Isabella, but also captures her condition and loss of cohesiveness as she loses herself into dementia and Parkinson's.

Animation is sparingly but cleverly used to complement the delivery and avoid it just being a talking head.
