The
film Still kicking honors the gift of age, and poignantly
illustrates that growing old can be a time of creative expression
and satisfaction. Challenging the perceptions and attitudes
towards being old, still kicking is certain to trigger
dialogue and ignite the imagination of us all.
"In
a world where we too frequently encounter negative images
of aging, come book and film abundant with elders who, through
love of and work with their particular craft, embody Browning's
oft-quoted grow old with me the best is yet to be. In film,
photography and oral history, Amy Gorman and Greg Young have
captured the creative spirit of these remarkable Bay Area
women."
