ElderCare Network is pleased to sponsor the 2014 acclaimed film, “Alive Inside” on Tuesday, April 7 at 2 p.m. in Porter Meeting Hall at Skidompha Library in Damariscotta.
Through “Alive Inside,” filmmaker Michael Rossato-Bennett chronicles the astonishing experiences of individuals around the country who have been revitalized through the simple experience of listening to music. His camera reveals the uniquely human connection we find in music and how its healing power can triumph where prescription medication falls short.
This stirring documentary follows social worker Dan Cohen, founder of the nonprofit Music & Memory, as he fights against a broken healthcare system to demonstrate music’s ability to combat memory loss and restore a deep sense of self to those suffering from it.
The public is welcome to attend.
