SFFS Screen Presents: The Window

Carlos Sorínʼs poetic, humanist contemplation on a manʼs hopes, fears and wishes at the end of his life.
“I try to hold on to it, for fear of losing it forever,” reflects 80-year-old Antonio, recalling the image of his childhood of time. As he waits for his sonʼs visit, confined to his room by doctorʼs orders, a look out the window stirs within him the desire for one last walk. What results is not simply a moving meditation on aging and death, but an elegantly lyrical and humanistic film.
