Usahay
Abstract
“Usahay” is a documentary short film about the relationship between a grandma with Alzheimer’s and her granddaughter. It explores the bond between the two and the difficulties they face due to the progressive disease. The Filipino word usahay means sometimes and it is reflective of the day-to-day of caregiving: Sometimes things are good, sometimes things are bad. Sometimes she remembers and sometimes she does not. It is in such moments they learn to make the most of what they have. The documentary is directed by Samantha Carl Selorio.
