In the movie Still Mine, an elderly couple named Craig and Irene Morrison are determined to build their final home on their family-owned land in rural New Brunswick, Canada. Craig is a skilled carpenter and wants to construct a small, sustainable, and functional house specially designed to cater to their needs.
As they navigate the bureaucratic requirements to obtain building permits, Craig faces resistance and opposition from the local authorities. Despite being in good health, Irene is slowly succumbing to memory loss and struggles with everyday tasks. Craig believes that building their own home will help preserve Irene's mental and emotional well-being, ensuring their comfort and safety in their twilight years.
Frustrated with the inefficient bureaucratic system, Craig decides to begin construction without official permission. However, the authorities catch wind of his defiance and threaten him with legal repercussions, including potential demolition of the unfinished house.
