"Extremely personal and moving…as much as the film is shadowed by a keen awareness of mortality, 'One Cut, One Life' often pulses with an almost ecstatic vitality. In its vision of human existence, life is as messy and unpredictable as it is precious." - Stephen Holden, The New York Times

When documentarian Ed Pincus, considered the father of first-person non-fiction film, is diagnosed with a terminal illness, he and collaborator Lucia Small team up to make one last film – much to the chagrin of Jane, Ed’s wife of 50 years.

This New York Film Festival selection is told from both filmmakers' points of view. Ed and Lucia’s unique approach to filming offers an intimacy rarely seen in docs, questioning whether some things might be too private to be made public. An intense, raw, yet sometimes humorous exploration of the human condition, One Cut, One Life invites viewers to contemplate for themselves what is important, not only at the end of life, but also during.
