What is this all about?


Telling the Truth films are newly forming company hoping to offer a film aid to people and caregivers of those struggling with memory loss.

The idea is to record people talking to camera about their lives and what makes them who they are in order that at a later date such information could be a tool used to help alleviate memory loss.

Who better to tell you who you are than you yourself?   A film featuring you telling yourself who you are and what things you feel it's important to remember could be an invaluable resource in a package of care or daily practise.

SO....
Today on April 17th 2015 we, Bridget Rachel and myself Maj ikle are off to visit Brian a local resident who has agreed to help us do our practise filming of our first session.

will hopefully post it up as soon as we have given Brian his chance for the final edit.

  1. Good luck! Sounds like a great idea. Have you seen the film Still Alice? If not, I recommend it. Julianne Moore is excellent and it totally fits with this project.

  2. Are you offering this as a voluntary service? Or do people pay for it?
    And is it something you offer to anyone who wants it for the future or just if they already have the beginnings of memory loss or dementia/Alzheimer's?

    Maybe you could approach Prunella Scales about the idea...? Perhaps she'd give it a go and endorse you?
