2018 Southern Gerontological Society Annual Conference

Care Documentary Screening with Director Q&A

From the filmmaker – “Care pulls back the curtain on the poignant and largely hidden world of in-home elder care. Beautifully shot and deeply moving, the film reveals the complex nature of the work, the intimate bonds that form between care workers and elders-and the cracks in a system that is poorly serving both”.

The documentary screening will be followed by a discussion with the filmmaker, Deirdre Fishel. “Care” has been awarded this year’s Southern Gerontological Society’s Media Award.
