Sixty-somethings Angie and Pat have shared their lives and home for decades, serving as the heart of both their family and a close-knit community of older lesbian women. They live openly in what appears to be a tolerant society, but when Pat dies, Angie loses everything. Without a will or legal rights to their shared home and assets, she is forced to battle for recognition of their relationship – revealing far deeper injustices and inequalities within the system. With emotional precision and standout performances, All Shall Be Well is a powerful examination of societal and legal structures. Like few others the film depicts mature love and the importance of community among our elders. A deeply moving portrait of grief and resilience. Winner of the Teddy Award for Best LGBTQ+ film at Berlinale 2024!
