For Every Apricot(2025)

For Every Apricot Synopsis

For Every Apricot drifts through the shifting terrain of memory, illustrating a grandmother’s journey in search of a “miracle drug” to cure her father’s illness. What begins as a simple family story, unfurls into a meditation on aging, fragility, and the circinate patterns that shape life. Through live-action interview, 16mm and 8mm archival footage, and a tapestry of handcrafted animation, the film moves between what is remembered, what is imagined, and what time has eroded. As she reflects on her father’s illness alongside her own, For Every Apricot becomes a deeply personal family portrait.

For Every Apricot (2025) is a documentary, animation, family, drama and adventure film directed by Kaia Fortis Scott, released on November 8, 2025 with a runtime of 6m. It stars MaryBeth Ryan Larone.
