Jacqueline isn’t quite in her right mind anymore, but she’s determined to take the train to the seaside, as she does every summer. Only this year, she’s constantly being followed by some woman who claims to be her daughter, and the trip takes some unexpected, phantasmagorical turns. Franck Dion’s gentle, poetic film invites us to share the journey of an elderly woman living with degenerative dementia.
