In a retirement home in a small village in the south of France, residents try to build a community. What ties can they still manage to forge in this anonymous environment often perceived as hostile? How do they cope with loneliness? What is the intimate relationship they have with life as they approach death? “Empty Hours” gives visibility to beings and bodies that are rarely represented, bodies that are aging but nonetheless very much alive. The film attempts to detect the irrepressible vital force that nestles at the heart of this antechamber of death. 　　源自：https://wff.pl/en/film/empty-hours
