r Wenn die Erinnerung verblasst
Marianne Pletscher, Martina Rieser, Switzerland, 2026o
Birgitta Martensson has been living with Alzheimer’s for eleven years – and she insists that her life is still a good one. With humour, openness and sheer willpower, Birgitta fights to retain her independence, even though control over her own life is increasingly slipping from her grasp. One thing is certain for her: a care home is out of the question. Over the course of almost three years, the filmmakers follow Birgitta and her best friend Christiane on their journey.
