Synopsis

Deep in the Quebec countryside, a once prosperous motel had fallen into disrepair before being turned into a retirement home. This thoughtful documentary explores the lives of its residents and how aging has altered the meaning of time for them. Quietly and without comment, director Jean-François Caissy follows 24 seniors over the course of five seasons, showing how their daily routines have become both very fixed and incredibly meaningful.
