We talk or joke about aging, trying our best to outfox the relentless passage of time. But we rarely confront death or the fear of being left alone.

A 78-year-old filmmaker wanders through his neighborhood and his own past to understand what’s happening within his body and brain — and those of the friends he encounters. What it’s like to feel your joints and thoughts stiffen but to be more relaxed about getting ahead or keeping up.

The film’s mood is more wistful and upbeat than sad. Arlyck has a droll take on entering the last lap, and the other septuagenarians he meets are a lively bunch. The film’s title has a double meaning — “here” refers to both the filmmaker’s green, rural surroundings and the preciousness of life itself.

Screening will be followed with a Q&A/discussion with Sandra Winter, Executive Director of Senior Coastsiders.
