Papa (2021)

Students film Duration 14:11

Papa

Papa is 93 years old and has been living alone for the past 5 years. Life is different compared to the past: his joints are stiff, body covered up with crumpled up skin, and everything takes longer time and bigger effort. Every weekend he is being visited by his children and grandchildren to offer some company, check up on him and help Papa with everyday tasks. It is hard to live in an old body and it is hard to see a body becoming old. Especially if it is someone close to you.
