Boundaries of Memory (2016)

Boundaries of Memory is a short fictional film about an elderly person's search for a son, whose name is resonating in his fading memory. This film is a part of the movie director's academic research on making affordable films for delivering social messages without loosing cinematic value. Unlike a traditional joint family, the current nuclear families lack the much-needed human infrastructure for nursing senior citizens at home. This situation is intense in the southern state Kerala, where many younger members in the family migrate abroad for better job prospects. While bringing public awareness about this crisis, Boundaries of Memory tells the heartwarming story of a grandpa with dementia. Loosely based on several true incidents, this movie paints a faithful picture of how relationships are changed, personal spaces are invaded and love is redefined in a nuclear family when an unwelcome elderly person enters. Can grandpa finally recognize t¬he face behind the resonating name?
