Yet, within the gentle cadence of their aging voices lies untold stories waiting to be cherished. &#8220;The Quiet Years&#8221; breathes life into these forgotten narratives, weaving a poignant tapestry of love.<br \/><br \/>In this documentary, we journey alongside our grandmothers, Ama and Nan through the lens of our cameras, confronting the inevitable passage of time, grappling with the bittersweet reality of our grandmother&#8217;s aging and decline. It is only when we take the time to sit down with them do we see their age, their wrinkles and their old hands. Or maybe it is only when we realise that we do not have the luxury of time to sit down with our elderly do we realise that we are losing or have lost our loved ones.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2d643d3 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"2d643d3\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-21a0299 elementor-arrows-position-inside elementor-pagination-position-outside elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-carousel\" data-id=\"21a0299\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;slides_to_show&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;navigation&quot;:&quot;both&quot;,&quot;autoplay&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;pause_on_hover&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;pause_on_interaction&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;autoplay_speed&quot;:5000,&quot;infinite&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;effect&quot;:&quot;slide&quot;,&quot;speed&quot;:500}\" data-widget_type=\"image-carousel.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-carousel-wrapper swiper\" role=\"region\" aria-roledescription=\"carousel\" aria-label=\"Image Carousel\" dir=\"ltr\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-carousel swiper-wrapper\" aria-live=\"off\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide\" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" aria-label=\"1 of 4\"><figure class=\"swiper-slide-inner\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"swiper-slide-image\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.lancs.ac.uk\/art-beats-festival-24\/files\/2024\/08\/Noelle-Richards_The-Quiet-Yea_The-Quiet-Years-1-still-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Noelle Richards_&#039;The Quiet Yea_&#039;The Quiet Years&#039;
