A short film produced by filmmaker Andrew Ferguson as part of Celebrate Ageing’ s Letters of Love and Dementia Campaign
A short film produced by filmmaker Andrew Ferguson as part of Celebrate Ageing’ s Letters of Love and Dementia Campaign launched in Ballarat, Victoria in 2016.
The 17-minute film shows Anne Tudor and her partner Edie Mayhew, who is living with younger onset dementia, opening and reading letters they wrote to each other every day for a week.
The film was part of a series documenting Edie’s journey with dementia. It invited family members and friends of people with dementia, and service providers to join the campaign by writing a letter to someone with dementia as a way of acknowledging the human experience of dementia. The letters were then shared on the project webpage.
