On Dying of Dementia in a Capitalist System

An animation film and digital humanities project explore the contradiction between a lucrative business and the humanity of people with dementia, direct care workers, and caregivers. The film is based on a poem written after the death of my partner from Lewy Body Dementia. Funded, in part, by the Elevate program, City of Austin Economic Development Program.
This is a sponsored project of the Austin Film Society.
