No Home Movie (2015)
Directed by Chantal Akerman

Documentary

Film Synopsis

Chantal Akerman, one of Belgium's leading auteur filmmakers, visits her mother who lives alone in a large apartment in Brussels.  They reminisce about their past but aren't always able to marry their recollections.  Memory can be such an unreliable record of the past.  What is beyond dispute is that Akerman's mother arrived in Belgium in 1938 after escaping the pogroms in Poland before WWII.  These days, she doesn't get out much, but she keeps in contact with her daughters via Skype.  Alas, her health is not what it once was...
