About event
Kamila Réblová cordially invites you to the screening of the film club Světozor:
🎬 film: Home of Chagrin Valley
📅 21 November 2024 from 7 pm
🆓 FREE ENTRY
📍 Workers' house Židenice - VELKÝ SÁL, Jamborova 65, Brno
Home of Chagrin Valley
It looks like an American suburb here 50s of the last century. Residents of Chagrin Valley, a facility for seniors with dementia, sit in the front yards of their imaginary homes and gather in a plaza over which the sun never sets.
“Why am I here?” asks 90-year-old resident Florence. As memory serves her, she likes her new home. She appreciates the dedicated care of the nursing team, with whom she likes to converse with insight. Conversations with people with memory loss include daily reassurances about what day it is or how old someone is. In addition to disappearing mental worlds, the film also records the hard work of female employees, often from socially excluded circumstances, who are waiting for another one at home after a night shift at work. Sanitation carts weave through the idyllic scenery of a roofed small town, and its inhabitants together create a world in which some sink deeper into the past, while others dream with hope of a better future.
