Win free movie tickets!

Win a double pass to an advanced screening of How About You – a movie set in a residential care home.

Australian Ageing Agenda is giving e-newsletter readers the opportunity to win a double pass to an advanced screening of the film, How About You (details below).

Set in an Irish residential care facility, the film gives a rare cinematic insight into aged care.

When all but four of the residents leave for Christmas, the inexperienced Ellie (Hayley Atwell) is left in charge of the home.

Known as “the hardcore”, the remaining residents (Vanessa Redgrave, Imelda Staunton, Brenda Fricker, and Joss Ackland) prove to be uncooperative and Ellie begins to lose her patience.

And just when things look most out of control, an overzealous health inspector comes knocking at the door.

Avoiding common nursing home stereotypes, How About You recognises the dignity of all people, while distinguishing between care that is clean, orderly but impersonal and care that is life-enriching.

To win:
The first 60 readers from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Canberra, Perth and the Gold Coast to enter will win a double pass to an advance screening of the film, valid from 18-20 July.

Simply send an email to: editorial@australianageingagenda.com.au, and in the subject heading write: How About You + the name of your city. You must also include a postal address.

No entries will be accepted after 5pm AEST, Wednesday, 9 July. But remember: it’s first in, first served.

How About You will be in cinemas around the country from Thursday, 24 July.
