Edith+Eddie

The documentary Edith and Eddie conveys the relationship between an interracial couple as well as the rights of the elderly. The filmmaker conveys these ideas by the use of symbolism for example; religious iconography that reinforces that Jesus is their only hope. The audio and mesmerizing music behind it makes a film that shows what a journey Edith and Eddie have been on. I feel the documentary has not put enough detail into the short film and that there is more background information.e.g. Family dynamics. The documentary made me feel confused and upset. I questioned myself and asked myself why they would try to pull them apart. I would recommend the documentary to others so they understand the rights of elderly and interracial couples. I do not think many people would enjoy it because it is a bit slow moving and hard to understand. It is more for Adults not for children that do not get bored easy.
