Grandmas Pension

The short film about the father and daughter living of the grandmother's pension was quite interesting. There seemed to be no "debt" involved because it was not exposed or explained that the father would pay his mother back for taking care of them. It could be viewed as an alternative perception of giving money to another person compared to the hegemonic thought of today. Maybe it is the sense that it is family and that's why there was no "debt" involved between the father and grandmother? Or it was because there was a daughter that needed taken care of? Either way, it could be viewed as an alternative perception to debt.
