Invitation to see Set for Life — free and open to the public

Set for Life follows three Baby Boomers who attempt to recover from the devastating impact of losing their jobs during the Great Recession. The film shows their struggle to hang onto their homes, health insurance, and hope.  Over time, the three boomers learn to cope with unemployment’s drastic effects on their lives, including the loss of economic security and ultimately their loss of confidence in the American Dream.
As the U.S. economy continues to struggle, the themes and issues explored in Set for Life remain timely and topical not only for boomers, but for all Americans.

This film grew out of Over 50 and Out of Work, a two-year online multimedia project.  Susan Sipprelle and Sam Newman will be on hand to discuss Set for Life in a post-screening Q&A.

This event is free, but we would appreciate your registering HERE.
