screening
The Oldest Person in the World, a new documentary from filmmaker Sam Green, is playing at the Gene Siskel Film Center through October 1. Moving, funny, and full of heart, the film follows Sam as he meets some of the world's oldest people and reflects on aging, time, and what it means to live a full life.
Sam will also be at the Siskel in person for a Q&A following the Saturday night screening - a special chance to hear more about the film, the people he met along the way, and the process of bringing their stories to the screen.
