SUMMARY:Familar Touch
LOCATION:Paul J. Schupf Art Center\, 93 Main St.\, Waterville\, ME 04901
DESCRIPTION:<p><span class="BoldText">Part of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.watervillecreat
 es.org/mainefilmcenter/cinex/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cinema Explor
 ations</a>, a wintertime community-curated film series.</span><br /><br />M
 any films show us experiences we have never had nor do we ever expect to ha
 ve. Ruth (Kathleen Chalfant) and her family are experiencing something we w
 ill find familiar. It is also likely that we have pondered whether Ruth’s f
 ate could be our own. When her son (H. Jon Benjamin) arrives, she mistakes 
 him for a suitor. Their “date” takes them to an assisted living facility Ru
 th does not remember she had previously selected for herself. Among her fel
 low memory care residents, Ruth feels certain she is somewhere she does not
  belong. As she slowly begins to accept the warmth and support of care work
 ers Vanessa (Carolyn Michelle) and Brian (Andy McQueen), she finds new ways
  to ground herself in her body even as her mind embarks on a journey all it
 s own.<br /><br />This coming-of-old-age feature from writer-director Sarah
  Friedland (the 2025 Independent Spirit Someone to Watch Award-winner) comp
 assionately follows the winding path of octogenarian Ruth’s shifting memori
 es and desires while remaining rooted in her sage perspective. "Friedland’s
  film, as sharp as it is soft, conveys both the terror of losing the life y
 ou recognize, and the intermittent, fragmented joy of finding it again."—Gu
 y Lodge,&nbsp;<span class="ItalicText">Variety</span>.<br /><br /><a href="
