But she feels trapped, and when a spirited gentleman called "the Pilot" moves in, he and his passion for life charms Lily... Lily and Max have been married for more than 50 years. Now they live together in a nursing home, where Max has been reliant on professional care since his stroke. Lily has been putting her own needs aside and is desperately longing for excitement and intimacy in her life. When a man known as "the Pilot" moves in next door, Lily is immediately charmed by him and his passion for life.

Misunderstood by her family and trapped in her life with Max, Lily decides to fight to escape the bars of her invisible prison and claim her freedom. (Cinemax)

Denmark did it again and they made a movie that once again tends to react to the taboos in society. In this case, the topic is dementia and the movie involves a number of senior citizens afflicted with the illness. But the movie is trying very hard to be sensitive and it isn’t trying to induce a severe depression in the viewers. And that’s despite the fact that this is actually part of the job description for a standard Danish movie. So, the result was that I spent a while thinking about how things are going to look for me one day only to realize that the outcome might be whatever for me. Nevertheless, I also read several reviews here and I have to agree with what the user misterz wrote. The thing is that you cannot really compare a Czech (or Slovak) old folks’ home to one in Denmark. Simply go somewhere abroad and check out German senior citizens – see how good and well-preserved they look? That, however, changes nothing about the fact that pensioners from both countries would agree with the idea of this movie. Both the well-preserved ones from the west and the not-so-well-preserved ones from the Czech Republic. And I am happy to reward this idea with a four-star review for this film.
