is about a group at the end of their lives who see their world fading and their place in reality increasingly on the boundaries,” the filmmaker observes. “At the same time, the aggression of the new goes over their heads. It’s about mortality and approaching death. The image of the hunter who doesn’t want to hunt any more reminds me very much of Marty’s movie. It’s a study of people at the end of their lives, people who used to be at the centre of something.
The filmmaker, who gave editorial advice and shared contacts with the movie’s creative team, is also right to see parallels with another of this year’s Oscar nominees,, the Sundance 2019 doc about a Macedonian beekeeper. “Both films gaze on the lives of people with a strong connection to the land and who have very unique and particular skills.”
