A Whole Life (2023)
When Andreas arrives in the remote valley in the Austrian Alps, he is only about four years old - nobody knows for sure. He grows up to become a skilled farmhand and, as a young man, joins a work crew that builds one of the first mountain railroads, bringing light and noise to the valley along with electricity. He also finds the love of his life in Marie, but their happiness is short-lived. Only many years later, when Andreas embarks on his final journey, she is with him once again. And in amazement Andreas looks back at all the years that lie behind him.

Excellent adaptation.
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
