Dementia – Stories about forgetting

Cinematic stories about memories, identity and humanity. And the impending loss of it all

Around 55 million people worldwide are affected by dementia diseases such as Alzheimer's, two-thirds of them in developing countries. By 2050, this number is expected to rise to 115 million. Dementia has many forms and faces. It affects not only memory, but also social interaction, communication, and emotional experience. Our film collection brings together moving stories that touch, educate, and show life with this disease from different perspectives - from the point of view of those affected, their relatives, and caregivers. The films tell of loss and change, but also of love, dignity, and the power of human relationships.
