Because I Will Remember

Through despair, frustration, anger and loneliness, Annabel is able to not only comfort her grandfather who was disappearing right before her eyes but she was also able to find herself in a world full of expectations. This is a journey of love, how far it will take you and how much you will sacrifice for the ones you love.

The Narrative trajectory of this film covers the beginning of 2017 when caregiving began as overnights at her grandfathers house to 2018 when he had moved into his daughters house where he had 24 hour care. While the journey started with gratitude and appreciation that she had the opportunity and the main struggle was sleeplessness which resulted in napping throughout the days but as the months went on the emotional wear and tear set in.  After a year the anger and frustration set in, he would take it out on her and the family. As months progressed the anger became more violent, aggressive and demeaning. Days became not only physically exhausting but mentally and emotionally as well.
