Description

IN-PERSON 2-PART SESSION, FOR ADULTS AGES 50+

The Age of Love follows the playful and poignant adventures of thirty seniors who attend a first-of-its-kind Speed Dating event for 70 to 90-year-olds, and discover how the search for love changes, or doesn’t change, from first love to the far reaches of life.

An unprecedented speed dating event for 70 to 90-year-olds, serves as the backdrop for The Age of Love, an alternately poignant and spirited look at the search for love among the senior set. Over one summer, we intimately follow as ten-speed daters, recently widowed, long-divorced or never-married prepare for the big day, endure a rush of encounters, then anxiously receive their results. Fearlessly candid about themselves and what they’re seeking, these WWII babies are spurred to take stock of life-worn bodies yet still-hopeful hearts. Then, as they head out on dates that result, humorous and bittersweet moments reveal how worries over physical appearance, romance and rejection, loss and new beginnings change or don't change from first love to the far reaches of life. The Age of Love is a story of the universality of love and desire, regardless of age. Q/A following the movie.
