Event details
Where do LGBTQI people go in their later lives?
Traditional aged care homes can be a nightmare for some, as they often find themselves surrounded by the very attitudes, they spent a lifetime trying to escape. Many go back into the closet.
Trans elder legend Julie Peters goes on a mission to find out what options are out there for older LGBTQI people of Australia, and overseas. She visits ‘Rainbow’ an LGBT senior’s community in Stockholm, Sweden to meet the residents and see how they live and play.
Back home, she also checks out what’s on offer in Melbourne and the regional town of Daylesford.
Forget the usual singalongs and board games, we’re talking ABBA drag shows and cabarets!
