Additional Information
9:15 — “In Praise of the Third Age”
A humanistic and research-based perspective on the beauty and benefits of old age — a pre-film lecture.
Lecturer: Iri Rikin — practical philosopher, journalist, and literary and cultural critic.
Does the world really belong to the young? What do studies teach us about happiness and fulfillment in the third age, and why has respect for the elderly declined, when throughout history the “elders of the people” were revered figures in society?
The lecture will address all these issues from a surprising and optimistic perspective.
