DESMOND'S NOT HERE ANYMORE
USA, GER 2021 Dir: Mmabatho Montsho
The mother cant remember, the daughter cant forget.
Abigail battles moving her elderly mother with dementia out from the family home. When her mother unconsciously haunts her by continually questioning Desmond's whereabouts it forces her to finally face the question.
Directed by multi-award winning South African director and writer Mmabatho Montsho, and written by award-winning screenwriter Lindiwe Suttle Müller-Westernhagen, Desmond’s Not Here Anymore is a surprisingly cathartic price of cinema.
