Twilight of the Gods
doc short
Twilight of the Gods / Az istenek alkonya (2025)
Éva, 82, is witty and unfiltered. While caring for her dying partner, she recounts a life of love, loss, and sexual freedom, with surprising humor and honesty - turning farewell into a powerful tribute to womanhood and resilience.
"Perhaps the most emotionally powerful piece in the section is Twilight of the Gods. This moving documentary tells the story of Éva, speaking through her experience about passing away, and the slow letting go of body and soul. The camera draws uncomfortably close, capturing its subject with painfully intimate images. We are confronted with the decay of the body and the everyday face of death, presented by the film with subtle and sensitive tools."
