Overview
- Stiller & Meara: Nothing Is Lost will stream on Apple TV+ on October 24 following a limited theatrical opening on October 17.
- Stiller started the project in 2020 by documenting his parents’ apartment after his father died during COVID, when a memorial was not possible.
- The film draws on home movies, cassette recordings, photos, newspaper clippings and newly discovered love letters to portray Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara.
- Stiller says making the documentary helped him process his parents’ loss and confront his own parenting and marriage on camera.
- Calling it a learning curve, Stiller describes documentary work as difficult because it requires living with uncertainty for a long time.
