Synopsis
Mrs Loosli is old. Alone she spends her days on her farm at the foot hills of the Alps. Mrs Loosli knits. She keeps in shape. She listens to the radio. She fires up the oven. She bakes pies for herself. She spends time with her dog. A young film crew watches an old lady’s everyday life and documents how each morning she braces herself against her life’s loneliness and the absurdity of life. The result is an essay in film about the power of rituals; that captures the beautiful in the ordinary.
