Some Kind of Love

Documentary on painter and designer Yolanda Sonnabend and her life at home alongside her older brother as he cares for her through the early stages of Yolanda's dementia.

"With zero work/life balance, artist and designer Yolanda Sonnabend, 77, lives surrounded by a half century of painting, sculpture, frames, fabrics, books, archeologia and the ephemera of her frenzied imagination. Her glory days are behind her. She resides in ‘Havershamian’ splendour in the last un-renovated house in a posh suburb of London. Her home is her last lover, her unborn child, and her very skin. At the end of her tether, Yolanda is struggling with a final commissioned portrait. Meanwhile her older brother has moved in, along with his concert grand piano." (Vancouver International Film Festival)
