What began as a grass roots, interpretive film class at a Manhattan senior community center, soon blossomed into a shortened spin on New York’s story of love and the passing of time, Annie Hall. The film stars Harry Miller and Shula Chernick, two seniors from the center and is deeply rooted in the original, serving as a reflection for the unique cast. Created by artists and filmmakers Ellie Sachs and IU alumnus Matt Starr, the project was a way to engage seniors and a meaningful way, while exercising memory skills. The two hope to replicate this project across the country.
