You're Looking at Me Like I Live Here and I Don't

Lee Gorewitz lives in a care facility for Alzheimer's patients, but she is not simply waiting to die. She is full of curiosity and frustration, struggling to remember herself and make sense of a world that is falling away from her.

Lee finds a birthday card but cannot recognize that she is the "Mom" to whom the card is addressed. Exasperated and missing her children, Lee embraces a make believe family of stuffed animals.

In this clip from the film, feisty Alzheimer's patient Lee Gorewitz pinches a box of cereal from the staff and teases her fellow patients as a way to combat caginess in the care unit.
