SUMMARY:Stolen Time
DESCRIPTION:As part of THE NFB IN LIBRARIES annual programming\, the Westmo
 unt Public Library  is offering a free screening of the following film:\n
 \nStolen Time - directed by Helene Klodawsky | 2023 | 1 hr 25 min\n\nA com
 pelling call for justice\, Stolen Time follows charismatic elder rights la
 wyer Melissa Miller as she takes on the corporate for-profit nursing-home 
 industry—an industry notorious for its lack of transparency and accounta
 bility. Her adversaries stand accused of neglecting their vulnerable charg
 es as they reap huge profits. As the legal battle unfolds\, we witness sur
 prising testimonies and images from families\, researchers\, advocates and
 \, most notably\, frontline caregivers whose work is often undervalued but
  disproportionately blamed for what goes wrong. The film is a rare inside 
 look at a legal battle and an emerging elder justice movement with ramific
 ations —and inspiration—for us all.\n\n“...a powerful film that real
 ly delivers a punch!”\n- Mike Cohen\, The Suburban\n\n“…exposes brut
 al corporate crime in the long-term care industry. The NFB’s chilling do
 cumentary reminds us that a society is measured by the compassion it exten
 ds to its most vulnerable.” - Adrian Mack\, Stir\n\nTrailer: https://vim

  this screening\, please consult the library’s website  or register dir
 ectly on eventbrite.
