Take a look in advance

Amanda’s mother Leslie’s advanced dementia presents Amanda and her stepfather Martin with a moral dilemma. As Leslie’s condition visibly deteriorates, the question arises as to what extent she is still capable of making important decisions for herself. Amanda and Martin each have their own ideas about what’s best for Leslie, but who ultimately decides: a husband, a daughter, or an institution? As Amanda and Martin are forced to make increasingly difficult choices, they become further entangled in a painful conflict over intimacy, care, and autonomy.

Can even the most loving intentions cause unintended harm? *Queen at Sea* is an intimate family drama about the reality of dementia and the painful dilemmas it can present for family and loved ones.
