On Queer Aging and Endings

What does it mean to grow old as yourself?

Filmed in their home in Norway, this intimate documentary follows conversations between trans physician and queer-rights advocate Esben Esther Pirelli Benestad and their partner Elsa Almås. As Esben Esther lives with cancer, they reflect on queer aging, love and mortality, and what it means to face an uncertain future together.

Directed by Christian Schulz-Quach
