Eternity and a Day

Alexandros (Bruno Ganz), a middle-aged bearded writer, leaves his seaside apartment in Thessaloniki after learning he has a terminal illness and must enter a hospital the next day to perform more tests. He is trying to get his affairs in order and to find someone who would take care of his dog. He speaks in his mind to his dead wife, Anna (Isabelle Renauld), who appears still young to him.
