Life isn’t over until it’s over. Senior stories have much to teach about life and love, like how breakups can be rough – especially when you must accept a new reality after being married for decades. These short films tell nuanced stories of life through the ages because life doesn’t end after your 20s, and neither should acting careers! From the lighthearted The Accidental Grandson to the heartbreaking Mireyita, which depicts an aunt's forlorn hope to bring her family back together, this block of films stunningly showcases an often overlooked perspective.
Mireyita lives alone in her parent's house. Over time she attempts to reach out to her siblings, but none of them show up. After several days, Mireyita is found by one of her neighbors, who calls the police.
