According to the press release, “Alzheimer’s takes the lives of more than 120,000 Americans every year. The documentary, which was produced over 10 years, tracks three women in the Wisconsin study who all had mothers with Alzheimer’s and witnessed firsthand the devastation wrought by the disease, not only on the mind and body, but on patients’ families. The study monitors the health and memory of thousands of people in an effort to discover lifestyle changes and medicines that could delay or prevent the disease.”
