“The film follows the stories of six carers talking about their experiences of looking after a family member with dementia. From the realization that something was seriously wrong, the shock and uncertainties of diagnosis and how they struggled to find anything – for themselves or the person with dementia – to help them cope with the situation.
The film was made by Kate Sturgess and her filmmaker husband, Alistair Briggs. Kate cared for her father, Jim, who had Lewy Body dementia. Making this film was their way of saying thank you to the Contented Dementia Trust, for the difference they made to all their lives. As Kate says: “It meant Dad knew who I was, and importantly, who he was, right until the end of his life”.”
