    • Synopsis
    • Juditha and Erik have been married for three decades and lived a full life against all odds and in spite of Juditha’s early diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. Now with Erik preparing to enter retirement, a crucial new phase of life is about to start: Juditha has eagerly awaited this moment, and she anticipates Erik’s companionship and times spent together more than ever. But Erik has trouble making the transition and escapes into new projects. Just as Juditha’s condition is making it hard for her to retain her independence, she and Erik drift further apart. They will need to rediscover the foundation of their marriage to find each other again. A story of love, loneliness, and ultimately togetherness.
