Artistic Representations of Aging: Reflections of Resilience

A bitter-aged man reluctantly drives to Spain to pay a last visit to a dying friend, along with his wife who’s suffering from dementia. But as their journey unfolds, he slowly starts to soften up and rediscovers the meaning of love.

Memory Lane is screening as part of Artistic Representations of Aging, an annual event hosted by the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Helen Bader Office of Applied Gerontology highlighting resilience in the older adult community through a photography exhibition and amateur competition, feature film screening in partnership with Milwaukee Film, and a panel discussion from experts on aging. The photography exhibition and amateur competition explores the theme “Reflections of Resilience,” calling attention to older adults in a variety of contexts with subjects including strength and adaptability, service, engagement, relationships, and artistic expression.
