NR“My mother decided to go back to school when she was 47 years old. Her four children had all left for college, and she felt now was the time to re-start her career in fashion design, so she enrolled in the Fashion Institute of Technology. I was auditing a film class at MIT’s Film & Video section and made this documentary about her. […] This film turned into a double portrait of her and of me.” –Mark Rance
