In Agatha’s Almanac, filmmaker Amalie Atkins documents the daily life of her 90-year-old aunt Agatha, who lives in rural Canada according to her own rhythms. In contrast to an increasingly fast-paced and digital world, Agatha embraces a life rooted in tradition, self-sufficiency and a deep connection to the seasons.
With a gentle and attentive eye, Atkins captures the rituals and routines that shape Agatha’s existence. The film intertwines personal history with a broader reflection on time, nature and independence, resulting in a contemplative and immersive portrait that invites viewers to reconsider what truly matters (source: IDFA).
