No Place to Grow Old is the first documentary to capture a
growing crisis unfolding quietly across America: older adults aging into
homelessness. Set in Portland, Oregon, this film follows the lives of three
older adults navigating the harsh realities of life without a home. Through
their stories of hardship and resilience, the film offers an intimate portrayal
of their challenges while illuminating the systemic issues contributing to
their plight. Featuring insights from local and national experts, No Place to
Grow Old is a powerful call to action that emphasizes dignity and hope,
envisioning a future where everyone, regardless of age, has a safe and secure
place to call home.
Running April 10-20, Portland Panorama debuts its first film festival with diverse films, music, workshops, panels and a full schedule of entertaining and informative events. See more at Portland Panorama.
