"A Story about my Grandmother" is a poetic documentary that explores the ways in which we make sense of our past; how a doubt or decision or coincidence leads to our present situation; how a first date becomes a relationship, or a family, even a whole genealogy.

 

The film also doubles as a loving portrait of Rosa Sørensen - a stubborn, independent, and warm but brutally honest woman - seen through the eyes of me, her granddaughter, who struggles to live in the presence. 

 

As the film unfolds, we see not one portrait but two as grandmother and granddaughter mirror one another in a twin tale of love, doubt, determination and mortality.
