GREY MATTER
GRIJSGEDRAAID
Ina van Beek
betacam / 25' / 2006 / The Netherlands

A portrait of a number of elderly ladies. The reality of daily life in a home-for-the-elderly seems to have a lot absurd qualities. And so the film starts out as pure slapstick. What we are watching is not funny at all, but a harrowing account of the sad and piteous aspects of life in old age.
