A weak, elderly, bedridden woman in a country home is taken outside by her son for a few hours of fresh air.
That's it.
The tenderness between mother and son and, especially, the lyrical camerawork which shows nature as beautifully as ever it has been framed, makes this a masterpiece.
This is an astonishingly beautiful film and a bookend of sorts to the same director's film about a son coping with his father's recent death.
Warning: do not bother with Sokurov's, "Father and Son." It is a bizarre, soft focus paean to homosexuality and incest.
