With the help of her beloved granddaughter Alex, Nancy must learn to navigate the strange new territory she finds herself in. Piano Lessons is a fifteen-minute short film that insightfully and empathically depicts the experience of people with age-related dementia. Adapted from the short story "In Sight of the Lake" by Alice Munro, Piano Lessons was co-written and directed by Dr. Marlene Goldman and Philip McKee, and produced by Dr. Goldman and Laura Nordin. Drawing on Dr. Goldman's extensive research in the field, the film presents a new and important person-centred perspective, emphasizing not the cognitive decline in people with late-onset dementia and Alzheimer's but the capacity for meaningful relationships and the knowledge that endures.
