With director Sam Green in conversation with Dominic Willsdon, Executive Director of IDA after the October 22nd screening!

Join us in the microcinema for an-all-too-human triumph of documentary filmmaking, Sam Greene’s profound and entertaining affirmation of life, The Oldest Person in the World.  Green creates a decade-long odyssey chronicling the ever-changing record holders of the title of oldest person alive. As the title inevitably passes from one supercentenarian to the next, acclaimed filmmaker Sam Green traverses the globe to meet each new record holder, his personal fascination with what the title means becoming entangled with events and milestones in his own life. What begins as a portrait of longevity becomes a poignant meditation on the passage of time, the randomness of fate and the joy and profound human experience of being alive.
