The Age of Love Screening at the CPL (Main)
The Age of Love follows the poignant adventures of thirty seniors who attend a first-of-its-kind Speed Dating event for 70- to 90-year-olds, and discover how the search for love changes — or doesn’t change — from first love to the far reaches of life. Playful and revealing, wise and inspiring, the speed daters both engage and enlighten with a candor that puts media stereotypes to shame. Just as we’re all destined to age, and the aged were all once young, we suddenly come to realize just how much, and how little, our hearts change over a lifetime.
The film's director, Steven Loring, will join us virtually after the film for an audience Q&A.
Presented in partnership with the Cambridge Council on Aging and the Living Well Network.
