Work Overview
After nearly forty years of marriage, the settled and perfect routine of Margery and Leonard is thrown into chaos by Margery's early symptoms and diagnosis of dementia. Strong-willed and independent, she struggles with the fear of losing autonomy and dignity, as well as the humbling necessity of asking for help. Leonard, content with his routine, grapples with denial, fear of loss, and his inability to protect Margery.
