In France, over one million people are affected by Alzheimer's, and this number could double by 2050 due to the aging population. Currently, there is no cure for this condition, only means to preserve patients' cognitive, motor, and sensory abilities for as long as possible.

Through the testimonies of four families, this documentary seeks to understand and explain the journey that those with Alzheimer's go through, accompanying them on their long path of forgetfulness—one they unfortunately did not choose. At the same time, the film sheds light on the caregivers, the everyday heroes who never abandon their loved ones, even at the expense of their own well-being.
