SYNOPSIS
Dementia is one of the greatest fears of people today. This documentary aims to shift that narrative of fear
and hopelessness to one of hope and action. There are things we can do as individuals to reduce our risk of developing dementia. There are ways to connect meaningfully with our loved ones, even if they no longer recognize us. We can live a high quality of life after diagnosis. Keys Bags Names Words shows intimate profiles of people living with dementia and their care partners. You’ll meet doctors discussing what you can do in your life to support brain health and prevent cognitive decline. And you’ll meet musicians and
artists, scientists and policy experts from around the world engaged in a bold approach to tackle a leading
global challenge for health and social care in the 21st century, dementia and brain health. This film is
not a lament to loss, but an inspiring celebration of the human spirit.

This event is being hosted by Sausalito Village in partnership with Sausalito Library and the Alzheimers Association.

A representative from the local chapter of the Alzheimers Association will be available after the film for Q & A and discussion.
