Keys Bags Names Words

Cynthia Stone’s inspiring new documentary Keys Bags Names Words aims to shift the narrative surrounding dementia from fear and hopelessness to optimism and action as it explores a variety of global approaches to social care and brain health. Following a cohort of young scientists and artists around the world, the film examines a plethora of community-based solutions that foster connection and meaning from art and music therapy to touch, dance, and sports. It reminds us that there are things we can do to reduce our risk of developing the disease as well as ways to connect meaningfully with our loved ones grappling with a diagnosis. Combining intimate stories with a global framework, Keys Bags Names Words offers a bold new approach to tackling the greatest health challenge of the 21st century. Through humor, creativity, and compassion we can unlock new paths to hope, resilience, and healing. Director Cynthia Stone will participate in a question and answer session following the screening. Doors open at 12:30pm. Concessions are available for purchase.
