I Like It Here
88 mins
Synopsis:
People talk or laugh about aging, its irritations and relentless progression, but rarely confront the reality of dying or being left alone. Nor do they consider the lightness and calmness that can come when the race seems less crucial. I LIKE IT HERE is about all those things and, finally, about the pleasures of being alive. A leading figure of American independent documentary film, Ralph Arlyck conveys how it feels to look back on your own life and to contemplate your place in an ever-changing world.
