Trap of Time
Video, Political / Social, Documentary, 35:58
Last time when I have traveled to Hungary with my son to visit my mother, she had an episode of Dementia. As I have never experienced this with her before at a certain point I decided to record our conversation.
She could not remember, that I live in Germany with my family and during a one hour conversation she has forgotten twice that she has a grandchild. She also has forgotten that she spent ten years abroad, or that I spent close to six years from my life abroad.
She stucked in the circle of time, where I was just finishing my university studies. She was shocked to realize that we do not live together any more. I was shocked to experience such a memory loss.
