About this film
In a remote village where food is scarce, elders who reach the age of 70 are carried by their children to the top of a nearby mountain to die in solitude. Orin, a vibrant 69-year-old grandmother, has accepted her fate — but struggles to prepare the rest of her family for the ritual.

This film is in the library, with its facts, cast and scores. It does not have a full Cinespective guide yet, but you can still do a lot with it.
The Cine Guide stays spoiler-free until you say you have seen the film. Adding a film to the library and writing its full guide are two different things: the guide is written by us, and we choose which to write next from the requests.
