    Empty nesters Amy and Dan are moving in right next door to her parents to help her mother Nan cope with some recently diagnosed memory issues. Nan is fighting a quiet battle for agency over her own life and death; she prefers to dwindle and leave on her own terms. Don't we all? With the best of intentions, Amy's "border collie" instinct to herd people into safer spaces might just drive Nan over the edge!

    Threading the narrative is tidying-guru Marie Kondo’s rather cold-blooded advice to give thanks and discard a thing that fails to bring us joy. But what if that thing is life itself?

    And then there's that mischievous elevator.
