AGING IN AMERICA: THE YEARS AHEAD
A film by Julie Winokur

Aging in America: The Years Ahead is a journey across the topography of aging in search of what it means to have a 'good old age'. This film traverses the experience of our elders from the wellderly to the elderly, as told through a series of intimate vignettes of people who are living the new old age. Through their stories, we laugh and cry as they celebrate their freedom, apply their wisdom, and suffer the consequences of their bodies' limitations. This film and its companion book are the result of seven years of fieldwork by the internationally-acclaimed team of writer Julie Winokur and photographer Ed Kashi. They traveled across the country, collecting scores of personal histories that, when taken collectively, challenge the culture of aging in America.

Total Running Time: 57 minutes
