SUDBURY – Goodnow Library is pleased to share that it will partner with the Sudbury Senior Center and Dementia Friendly Sudbury for a screening of the award-winning documentary “Cycle of Memory.”

The screening will be held on Wednesday, April 26 at Goodnow Library, 21 Concord Road. Refreshments will be available at 5:30 p.m., and the film will begin at 6 p.m. The filmmaker, Alex Leff, will join virtually for a question and answer session after the screening.

“Cycle of Memory” tells the story of Mel Schwartz, Leff’s grandfather, who escaped the Great Depression on a bicycle. Seventy-five years later, after Schwartz lost his memory to Alzheimer’s, his grandchildren set out to recreate his life-changing journey and find those memories before they slip away. “Cycle of Memory” explores the importance of intergenerational connection, healing painful pasts, and leaving a meaningful time capsule for the future.

This film is recommended for ages 16 and older and contains some strong language, as well as mild cannabis use.
