Stills
Photo album on the couch. Sheer light, a walker beside them.
An eye in close-up. Another reflected behind.
Cheek to temple. A hand cradling her head.
An older woman, the raw look. A hand at her shoulder.
Spoon to mouth. Caregiving at the table.
Close-up. A tear held at the corner of the eye.
