Director Rea Tajiri scheduled to attend.
Sunday, May 21 at 1:00pm | In this moving reflection on history, stories, and family, filmmaker Rea Tajiri documents her mother Rose Tajiri Noda’s life as a person living with dementia, over a 15-year span. As her memories shift and slip away, and Rose’s reality, dreams, and history intertwine, Tajiri gains wisdom through listening and learning to connect with her mother through art, music, and their time together. WISDOM GONE WILD is a poignant meditation on mothers and daughters and a tender exploration of caregiving, mortality, and grief. Director Rea Tajiri scheduled to attend.
