- Summary:
- This remarkable film, ten years in the making, documents the aging and death of Gramp in the bosom of his family. Grandsons Mark and Dan Jury shared in caring for him at home so that he could live and die among the people he loved. They recorded their experience in the photo essay "Gramp," and eventually in this multi-award winning film. Their grandmother Nan continued to live on Chillysmith Farm, aging gracefully. She died peacefully, surrounded by her family, including her great grandchildren. When Dee and Mark Jury expect their third child, they believed all family members should share in the joy of birth and they had in the sorrow of death. Kristen is born at home with the whole family attending. The four generations are bound with loving ties.
