Ageing is not one moment but a long accumulation, of memory, of loss, of the people who are still here and the ones who are not. Short films are unusually good at holding a single late chapter and giving it weight. These films are hand-picked, complete, and free to watch. Stories about getting older, and about what we carry with us.
Only The Lonely sits with an old lady whose life becomes intolerable after she loses her beloved husband, and Metal follows a grandfather mourning the loss of his young grandson. All Through The Night watches a son determined to stir his father's fading memory while facing his own, while And Now I Lay Me Down follows a once-famous actress arranging her perfect day that does not go as planned.
The most affecting short films about ageing find tenderness in the everyday. Darlings follows an estranged son returning to see his dying grandmother, and A Moral Man turns a controversial spotlight on assisted suicide. Our editors picked every one, and they stream free across all 193 countries with nothing to sign up for. Hit play, and take your time.
