REEL
The award-winning short film from 1991. About remembering, about growing old without feeling that way, about learning to spin, about love at all ages.
In this film poem an elderly woman played by the great actress Grete Nordrå thinks back on her life while she spins yarn and teaches a little girl (Ada Hesjevoll) to knit. Several scenes paint pictures of women's life experiences and love encounters in different ways and at different ages.
