About this event

Duty Free: A movie about ageism, love and bucket lists

When Rebecca Danigelis, a British immigrant living in Boston, is fired from her lifelong job as a hotel housekeeper at the age of 75, she is financially and emotionally devastated. At the time, her adult son, Sian-Pierre, is living in New York City working his way into the competitive world of TV journalism. When his mother’s reality crashes down, Sian-Pierre resolves to leave New York, and the life he expected to lead, to help get his mother back on her feet. While helping her search for a new job, the duo embark on an adventure spanning two continents. Through the journey and joy of crossing off Rebecca’s “bucket list,” a surprising family saga is revealed: the compromises and injustices placed on single mothers, the persistence of sexism and ageism, and the difficult dance of duty and freedom when generations of family members come together.

Age Equity Alliance, Old School Clearinghouse, and Age Inclusion in Media are collaborating in this offering to raise awareness of workplace age discrimination and the financial insecurity of many older workers.

You will receive a link to view the movie beginning 30 May and ending at midnight on 1 June. To access the screening, just enter "dutyfree" as the password.

The details on the Q&A, scheduled for 3 p.m. EDT on 1 June will also be provided prior to the event.

We hope you will join us for this special event! And don't forget to share the invitation on your favorite social media platforms!
