The Elder Project

Colmers, Eva M., 1953- (Added Author). Thompson, Bonnie. (Added Author). National Film Board of Canada (Added Author).

Summary: "Our older seniors -- those aged 80 and over -- have become the fastest growing population segment of the world's population and yet their voices are rarely heard. The Elder Project follows seven diverse seniors over two years, recording their experiences for a series of short and candid episodic stories ... The elders share their views on many issues, including the loss of a driver's license, the decision to move in with family members and a growing sense of isolation. Each senior has different medical, social-economic and cultural circumstances, but articulates similar concerns about increasing frailty and making the transition into a more dependent living scenario. Above all, they eloquently express their shared desire to grow older with dignity and a sense of control over their future."--Container.
