Le vieil âge et l'espérance

synopsis

Veteran filmmaker Fernand Dansereau has already proven that humour, joy (Le vieil âge et le rire, 2012) and sexuality (L'érotisme et le vieil âge, 2017), don't disappear as we age. But what about hope? When the passing years bring failing physical and mental faculties, how can we anticipate, desire and appreciate everything life still has to offer? Le vieil âge et l'espérance does feature some health experts and philosophers, but elderly individuals are front and centre, sharing their priceless wisdom.
