OLD?! is a thought-provoking film with powerful underlying messages. We are reminded how awkward, funny, and poignantly truthful children are as they consider what it means to “be old.”  We are awed by elders who are defying and redefining the box our society calls “old age” and are affirmed by the absolute fact we can be creative at any age. We squirm a bit uncomfortably as we are reminded, simply –you’ve got to move it or you’ll loose it. And we are touched by sadness with the awareness that learning to be old in one’s own skin is neither simple nor easy. By the end, the film invites us to embrace our own aging process.
