The heroine is a professor who teaches linguistics at a university. She has excellent abilities and a happy marriage. At the age of 50, she has a lot of expectations for the future...and imagination, until she begins to experience "memory impairment".
Dementia caused by Alzheimer’s disease (named as dementia caused by Alzheimer’s disease in the fifth edition of the Mental Illness Diagnostic Guidelines Manual) includes:
(1) Family medical history or genetic testing Discovery of a genetic mutation that causes Alzheimer’s disease
(2)-1 Significant deterioration in memory and learning: As a professor of linguistics, she began to fail to recognize words, forget recent invitations, and lost her way in a familiar campus...
(2)- 2 Cognitive state gradually degenerates: Symptoms become more and more serious, gradually unable to complete the crossword puzzle, unable to control their own urination... The
movie filmed how the patient faced his own mental process when the symptoms began, gradually worsened, and finally, it was very sad. It's very heartbreaking and worth seeing.
If there really is that day, how should I face that kind of self.
This film provides viewers with more understanding and ways of thinking about "dementia".
In particular, Julianne Moore’s performance was so brilliant, when she finally took the stage, even I couldn't help tears in my eyes.
