Alzheimer’s Film at Rice Next Week!
Rice University is hosting a Festival for New Spanish Cinema this month, and we couldn’t be more excited about one of the films in particular – Bicycle, Spoon, Apple, which follows former Mayor of Barcelona and former President of Catalonia Pasqual Maragall after his diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease.
The film will be screened on Friday, January 27 at 6:30p.m. The Alzheimer’s Association Houston & Southeast Texas Chapter will host a reception prior to the film. Dr. Gustavo Roman, The Jack S. Blanton Distinguished Endowed Chair; Director, Nantz National Alzheimer Center at the Methodist Neurological Institute, and caregiver Connie Assiff will lead a panel discussion directly after the film.
