About "Mental: Elderly Abuse"

"Mental: Elderly Abuse" is the inaugural episode of the "Mental" documentary series, delving into the silent epidemic of elder mistreatment. This film uncovers the various forms of abuse-emotional, financial, and neglect—that affect vulnerable seniors globally.

Dr. Jerrelda Sanders

Through powerful interviews with Family, friends, and specialists, we expose the devastating impact of abuse and the systemic failures that allow it to persist. It's a critical look at a societal issue often hidden in plain sight, compelling viewers to confront the realities and demand change.

Mental: Elderly Abuse is a sobering reminder of the vulnerability of the aging, the fragility of mental health, and the devastating cost of silence in the face of exploitation. It's a film that asks: What is a home worth, and who will protect those who no longer can protect thenselves?
