A farm in winter. Shrouded in clammy gray, an elderly married couple goes about their increasingly arduous and silent everyday life. Even the donkey has seen better days. The impending loss of the beloved animal turns focus to their (own) mortality. A parable about dying and the associated farewell – photographed atmospherically, and tender until the very end.
