In the spring of 2014 some area residents of Zumbrota, Minnesota collaborated to create a movie in, and with, their community. Area residents not only acted along side professional SAG actors in various locations around the town, but also shared their gifts to help produce all aspects of the project. The result was a beautiful movie named "His Neighbor Phil" (later edited and renamed "A Timeless Love").
The story takes us into the lives of Mary (Stephanie Zimbalist), her husband Harvey (Daniel Roebuck), their family (daughters played by Rachel Storey and Kristi Knudson; sister by Ellen Dolan; mother by Sally Kellerman) and friends and neighbors as they live within the reality of Mary's diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease.
Harvey discovers that music seems to be a connection to Mary's memories and an inner live that he desperately longs to share. The mystery of her disease has him questioning not only his current relationship with Mary, but the truth about their past, as well.
Alzheimer's organizations have hailed the film as "Humorous, Heartbreaking and Hopeful".
On Sunday, September 20th, the Zumbrota State Theatre, will host a double feature to show both the initial film ("His Neighbor Phil") and the final edited version ("A Timeless Love"). You are cordially invited to come enjoy this unique gift created by members of the Zumbrota community and shared through this story of love, change, music, and memories.
