About the Film

The Caregivers' Club documentary opens the door to the isolated world of caregivers and allows us to step inside the lives of four Canadian families over the course of a year. It shadows their daily struggles caring for relatives with dementia, all the while living with hope, love and laughter. The impact of the film to date has led Director, Cynthia Banks, to be nominated for a 2019 Canadian Screen Award (https://www.academy.ca/2019/cynthia-banks/).
