The Nurse – A Short Film by Joyce Kostakis

My film project “The Nurse” is moving along. 

When a person living with Alzheimer’s doesn’t recognize his wife and asks her to leave their home of twenty years, she must figure out a way to find her way back to care for the man she loves. Comps: Still Alice meets The Vow.

We film in June. I met two amazing women that are helping. Carole Klinger, CEO of A Dementia Friendly Life – Linking Individuals & Families Through Education and Engagement and Kristin McAdams with the Alzheimer’s Association, Cleveland chapter. Both are Earth Angels! Carole and I are going to work on training videos for caregivers. I’d love to hear any suggestions you may have.

If you or someone you know is living with dementia, I encourage you to reach out for support.
