Moment to Moment<br />

Documentary<br />

by Michael Attie<br />

Philadelphia, PA. 13 min.<br />

Carl and Susan, husband<br />

and wife, scientist and artist,<br />

navigate the challenges of<br />

Carl’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis.<br />

Unable to engage in the<br />

scientific inquiry of his prior<br />

physics career, Carl finds<br />

solace in his basement, dismantling<br />

discarded electronics in search of the copper inside.<br />

What begins as a curious behavior evolves into an artistic collaboration,<br />

as Susan turns Carl’s copper remnants into individually<br />

framed sculptures. Their collaboration culminates in<br />

a joyous art exhibit, creating a moment of bittersweet celebration<br />

amidst Carl’s declining state.<br />
