Dancing on the Elephant

Wednesday September 9 at 4:00 and 7:00

Faced with a future of chair-xercise and spoon-fed pudding, nursing home friends Nora and Edna attempt to break out of the “fox farm” and find a life worth sticking around for.

REVIEW

“One of the most endearing kinds of film doesn’t immediately announce its emotional power so much as it gradually and subtly reveals it, scene by scene. The new drama, ‘Dancing on the Elephant,’ does just that by exploring aging with a tenderness and honesty that feels increasingly rare.”

— Film Factual

“Mary Walsh’s performance was a poignant, vital and raucously funny portrayal of a senior citizen struggling with dementia and memory loss.”

— Atlantic International Film Festival Awards Jury
