Mimi and Dona: The Lord's Prayer

In this excerpt from the Independent Lens documentary Mimi and Dona, the 92-year-old Mimi and her daughter share a tender moment as they awkwardly try to get through the Lord’s Prayer before bed on the night before Dona is supposed to move out. They don’t quite have the prayer down, but they finish it nonetheless.
