Alive Inside: Music vs. Meds.
Filmmaker Michael Rossato-Bennet confronts the appalling treatment of the elderly in institutions, in his Sundance Audience Award winning documentary. Uncovering the power of individualized music via headsets to heal, and bring withdrawn souls back to vivid life. And why the drug corporations and nursing home industry are opposing these efforts, neither of which entity is in the business of curing people. But rather perpetuating profit by solely treating symptoms instead.
