This short film explores the powerful links between age, food, health and culture.

Over the past few months, we’ve sat down for home-cooked meals and honest conversations with six older people from diverse backgrounds.

From a lifelong vegan activist to a man who has never cooked, their stories challenge stereotypes and reveal a richer, more surprising picture of later life. Pictured above are Ian and Lloyd after their excellent lunch together.

Funded by Feeding Bristol and created with filmmaker Neil Maggs – known for capturing the voices and lived experiences of ordinary people, this documentary puts the lives of older people centre-stage.

Come and watch, and join the conversation.
