7:30 MUSIC with Jeffrey Friedberg
8:00 FILM Screening
ALIVE INSIDE
Directed by Michael Rossato-Bennett
USA, 2014, 78 minutes, documentary
Dan Cohen has devoted himself to equipping nursing homes with music, in the fervent belief in its rejuvenating power. His message is that music can serve to confirm our essential, irrepressible, and shared humanity, and his goal is to bring the visceral joy back to the lives of Alzheimer's patients by unlocking their memories with music from their past. The result can be an astonishingly reawakened sense of self. Renowned neurologist Oliver Sacks helps explain the connection between music and the mind.
Community Partner: Jeffrey Friedberg MT-BC, LCAT, and Music For Life Creative Arts Therapy PLLC
There will be a post-film discussion with music therapist, Jeffrey Friedberg MT-BC, LCAT, Barbara Bedway, who appears in the film, and others to be announced.
"As detailed in the joyous, unexpectedly uplifting Alive Inside, winner of Sundance's coveted audience award for U.S. documentary, what Cohen has done is place iPod earphones on these people's heads and played what family members have told him is their favorite music. The effect is miraculous. Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times
