Away from Her (2006)

Fiona has just been admitted to Meadowlake, a long term care facility near their country home in southwestern Ontario, because her recent lapses of memory have been diagnosed as a probable case of Alzheimer’s disease. She and Grant made this decision together, although a still lucid Fiona seems to have made peace with the decision and her diagnosis more so than Grant. With respect to the facility, what Grant has the most difficulty with are what he sees as the sadness associated with the facility’s second floor – where the more advanced cases are housed – but most specifically the facility’s policy of no visitors within the first thirty days of admission to allow the patient to adjust more easily to their new life there.

The strengths of the film are the subject, the direction, the performances and the seamless editing by the director’s spouse. It is not a film that will attract young audiences who are insensitive. Yet the film has a evocative scene where a young teenager with several parts of her body pierced by rings is totally amazed by the devotion of the aging husband for his wife. So in a way the film reaches out to different age groups. Though it talks about sex, it can be safe family viewing material. Chances are that most viewers will love the film if they are interested in films that are different from “the American films that get shown in multiplexes” to quote a character in the film. More importantly this film advertises the problem of Alzheimer’s disease eloquently and artistically. It prepares you for future shocks.
