“Glimpses of old people as individuals rather than as social statistics. The program includes a 76-year-old woman baking strudel in her apartment, a birthday party for two 98-year-olds, a conversation with elderly residents of a nursing home, and senior citizens putting together a variety show at a neighborhood center.” Features Danforth Dancers, Hurlbut Nursing Home, and Montgomery Center.
