The Merry Companions
Overview
"It takes courage to accept growing old. It's the response to the cruelty of passing time that I wanted to film."

Against all odds, "The Joyful Companions" are active and committed to maintaining the social connections that bind them to life. But what strategies, tricks, and struggles they must invent to live old age with hope... Xavier Liébard Director, Writer
