Holding On to Today

“August 28. The old lady was doing pretty well today. Nothing much happened. Just another peaceful day.” These ordinary words open a window into the life of 74-year-old Genlin Zhang, who has spent eight years caring for his wife as Alzheimer's disease takes away her memories, language and independence. Through intimate interviews and daily routines, the film follows him through the repetitive, often invisible labor of caregiving, and through small moments of connection. In a life shaped by uncertainty, an uneventful day becomes something worth remembering.
