So short, so sweet. Weirdly captivating for how little (or perhaps as much) as it was. An old mother, simply doing her thing, with a daughter doing hers with a camera.

It's a nice, tender portrait of age and love, but too fleeting to be meaningful. All the shots are in profile or wider angles, preventing true intimacy with the subject.
