From your director

I'm not fond of how our society looks at aging. Ageist jokes. Ageist birthday cards. Extolling youth at the expense of older people.

I question this society's negative philosophy of aging. Aging is an active sign of the persistence of life over death. Personally, I'd rather age than push up daisies. But what's hard is that getting older is to grow, and that pushes us out of our comfort zone at any age. Wisdom cannot occur in a vacuum; it is enhanced by - guess what - experience, and that means age. more
