Portrays the life experiences of elderly individuals living in a rural community, their desire for independence and their respect for the traditions of their past. Barriers to integrating into current day life are explored including those which prevent access to health care and social services. Excellent for care providers and socialworkers working with rural elderly. Also appropriate for senior viewing.
Even as it paints a bucolic portrait, “Miss Nora’s Store” delivers a message about what the elderly can do and how they can live when then are not fenced off, segregated, or even warehoused…
