Before Leaving

2001 · 1 hr 31 mins

A luminous, unsentimental portrayal of a charismatic, indefatigable woman, and of the lives (and one death) of the personalities and conditions (including Alzheimer’s) of the elderly residents of the retirement home she administers outside Paris. A film full of love, caring, dignity, pain and joy, sadness and laughter, and remarkable faces. Invigorating and inspiring. ~ Full Frame Documentary Film Festival

Director: Marie de Laubier
