A film & conversation. Three revealing stories about how family dynamics change when a loved one has Alzheimer's disease

Matter of Mind: My Alzheimer’s is an intimate portrayal of three families confronting the unique challenges of Alzheimer’s and how this progressive neurodegenerative disease transforms roles and relationships. Whether it's a partner becoming a caregiver or an adult child shifting into being their parent's caregiver, these stories show how families evolve when a loved one is diagnosed.

After the film, join UC Health Neurology Clinic neurologist Dr. Tracy Vargas and Angel Hoffmann from the Alzheimer's Association for a conversation and Q&A with the community. Everyone is invited and encouraged to participate.

Anna Moot-Levin (Director/Producer), Laura Green (Director/Producer), David Alvarado (Producer), and Jason Sussberg (Writer/Producer). Home Court will premiere on PBS on May 5, 2025.
