Finding a Way to Contented Dementia

The film follows the stories of 6 care partners in England 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.
