The visits by loved ones that residents yearned for were prohibited. Due to her fragile health, the manager had to work from home. Via a self-built 'Skypekar', residents and the care staff could safely stay in touch with the outside world. Via these intimate video talks, this short documentary offers a unique glimpse of a nursing home during the critical first Covid wave.
