What is life like with no short-term memory? For years, Yle journalist Tuula Rajavaara recorded her mother Aili Rajavaara suffering from a memory disorder. At the time of making this documentary Aili lived at home and on a respite ward, two weeks at a time. Together, mother and daughter tackle their ever more surreal everyday life. The film provides an insight into the unique world of memory disorder. The focus is on Aili and her endless joy of life. The location is Aili’s suburban flat that has changed with the disorder. With her example, Aili wants to remove the stigma on memory disorders and show life won’t end with the diagnosis. Managing life with her is the frustrated daughter Tuula. Bubbly humor makes anxious moments easier. New innovative ways to express and to develop the storytelling were searched and found: photos, notes, phone calls, and messages were used to produce the TV documentary as well as web miniseries, radio documentary, and photo exhibitions.
