Program Description
Event Details
Join us for a viewing of the award-winning documentary film, Cycle of Memory, followed by a Q&A with documentary filmmaker and director, Alex Leff. The heart warming story of two grandkids' quest to find the memories their grandfather lost to Alzheimer's by recreating his 1945 bicycle adventure.
This intergenerational perspective on Alzheimer’s disease and dementia has been resonating with diverse audiences, from Millennial caregivers to Senior Centers and Councils on Aging. Specifically, family members who have lost a parent to Alzheimer’s and have children of their own are finding that the film’s uplifting message, emphasizing what can’t be forgotten, provides a blueprint for families to hold on to their connection despite aging and memory loss.
