Keys Bags Names Word is playing September 19th at Rialto Cinemas followed by a discussion featuring Director Cynthia Stone, Co-creator of the hear/say project at GBHI Caroline Prioleau, and feature subject Jill Harmon. This special event is followed by screenings in over 50 cities worldwide and over 15 countries in recognition of World Alzheimer's Day on Sept 21. Produced and directed by award-winning filmmaker Cynthia Stone, Keys Bags Names Words is a hopeful and inspiring lens portraying stories of both the personal and global impacts of Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia, while following a cohort of young scientists and artists from around the world as they harness creativity, humor and compassion to lead the way towards hope and resilience. As global populations age, the number of people living with dementia grows, tripling by 2050 to 152 million-overwhelming families, communities, public health care systems and economies worldwide. This film is intended to create a shift. A shift in thinking among those who have dementia from hopelessness to optimism and action for a higher quality of life. A shift for carers from loss and despair to connection. A shift towards prevention and knowing how to keep our brains healthy. And a shift that comes from real people sharing their experiences-the funny, the angry, the sad, the powerful-and finding ways we can be less afraid and more inclusive.
11-12.95 dollars.
