LEARNING RESOURCES

Love: The Last Chapter can be used as a conversation starter, a training tool, and as a catalyst for change!

It is our hope that Love: The Last Chapter is used widely in community, educational and professional development settings. By providing a deep dive into the lived experience of three senior couples, the film can help us:

unpack and challenge ageism
understand the importance of intimacy late in life and of supporting the emotional needs of seniors
de-stigmatize sexuality among seniors
appreciate decision making processes faced by older couples vis-à-vis healthcare and living arrangements
discuss best practices when interviewing, researching and documenting seniors
reflect on the universality of experiences for seniors but also on the individuality and uniqueness of experiences based on race, gender, class, abilities.
