Short film portrays losing a loved one to Alzheimer’s

By Claire Anderson

This short film is based on a poem written by Beth Copeland called ‘Falling Lessons: Erasure One’.

The poem and film portray the pain of slowly losing a person to Alzheimer’s.

Alzheimer's Disease affects over 35,000 people in Ireland, which is set to increase as the population ages.

The Alzheimer Society of Ireland has more information about Alzheimer’s and Dementia in Ireland.
