As part of our ongoing partnership with Bombyx resident company, the Young @ Heart Chorus we're excited to screen the Walker George documentary Young@Heart which was originally released in 2007 and won two Rose d’Or awards, as well as the LA Film Festival Audience Award, and was also screened at Sundance and SXSW Festivals.
In a society obsessed with youth and perfection, Young @ Heart is an engaging reminder that unless you check out early, aging is an inevitable part of life - and approaching it with wit and creativity is essential!
The screening will be followed by a short performance and talkback
