i live In Life

Documentary

When his mother begins to decline into advanced Alzheimer’s, the film-maker becomes caretaker to the apartment she lived in for almost 40 years, and her beloved dog, Oskar. In the process he’s forced to confront her mortality – and his own. Combining techniques from theater and puppetry, his film delves into the question of who are we if we don’t remember who we are?

Lars Fuchs

Danish-born filmmaker Lars Fuchs came to the United States as an infant in the ’60’s, and has made New York City his home ever since. He was irredeemably lost to film at Cornell University, where an introductory film-making course tempted him away from a career as a computer programmer. Now, after over twenty years’ experience as an editor for film and television, he looks forward to graduating with a City College MFA and the challenge of making his own films.
