This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Without any condemnation, this is a very interesting film with split-screen technology that potentiates the dichotomy of a mother and father coming to an uncommonly candid explanation of each person's selfish and myopic reasons for a Love Boat affair, yet with none of the self-realization or self-loathing of their 'free love' escapades in the late 60's to mid-70's effect on the children, one of whom is filming her mother and father. The psychological miasma never seems to coalesce into a coherent regret, yet the angst between the women is palpable; and that makes this short film all the more powerful as the audience must come away with their own view of two parents taking a trip on the 'memory love boat'. The director did a spectacular job of visually and verbally displaying this sexual yin-yang story.

The film seems to have found a public, turning up on the festival circuit, where it has some novelty value.Technically adequate
