DOCUMENTARY OF THE MONTH
Filmoteca Canaria screens ‘What I Have Left of You’, by Zara Zerny, in the new session of the Documentary of the Month.When René, 86, buys flowers, he always thinks about what colour his wife would have chosen if she were still alive. Most of the people in this film have spent more time with their partner than without her. Through candid and revealing interviews, ‘What I Have Left of You’ presents a group of Danish men and women, all of them 80 years old or older, who, with touching honesty, share their thoughts about their partners, the despair of losing them and the ways in which life goes on. Filmmaker Zara Zerny tenderly unites their voices as if they were a choir, interweaving them with abstract and dreamlike images, music and artistic interpretations of their lives.

ABOUT THE DOCUMENTARY OF THE MONTH
The Documentary of the Month is an initiative promoted by Filmoteca and DocsBarcelona that seeks to screen documentaries of different social nature once a month throughout the year. Capitalism in all its extension, the problems of children without schooling or the story of journalists who worked on controversial investigations are some of the proposals that will be addressed this year.
