The documentary offers a glimpse into Williams’s life, depicting her in moments of vulnerability, which include scenes of her in a wheelchair and emotional exchanges with her son. Hunter shared his concerns about his mother’s mental state and attributed her dementia to excessive alcohol consumption.

“They basically said that because she was drinking so much, it was starting to affect her headspace and her brain. So I think they said it was alcohol-induced dementia,” he explained.
