They have promised each other that they want to die in their shared home. Their children grew up here, and their life took place here. They always wanted to be there for each other. Until the end. To redeem each other when one of them can no longer go on. Eilis, an Irish woman, and Willem, a Dutch man, have been married for over fifty years. Two years have passed since her Alzheimer’s diagnosis. Devotedly, he cares for his beloved wife but can only watch as she continues to fade away, a little more each day. Willem is also struggling with old age. Time blurs in his mind, and the tear-off calendar in the kitchen, recommended by his childhood friend Fonsy, doesn’t help. Willem is at the end of his hope and strength, and he thinks of the promise that he and Eilis made to each other... Against the backdrop of the harsh.
