Memorable (2019 short)

  Haha, it's called "Memorable" but I forgot to write it.  Ha ha *sigh*.

Another day, another depressing ass short about Alzheimer's.  This time it's a painter (André Wilms) whose grasp on art is diminishing equally with his memories, and his wife (Dominique Reymond) doing her best to keep them from falling apart.  The painter loves his wife even when he can't remember her, painting her portrait again and again, using less and less paint until she's only a suggestion on canvas, as she is in his mind.

The claymation style of this carries some of the storytelling, providing a visual for how Alzheimer's strips away the layers of a person.  It's quite beautiful and moving and it's finally on Vimeo after not being available for a couple of years.
