Life After Life is a poignant, surprising and at times hilarious documentary about aging, ability and artistic expression that shows it is never too late to explore the unknown. The film documents how applied dance majors from UT inspired three charismatic grandmothers from the Ella at ENCORE retirement community in Tampa to create an original modern dance in one week. As the recital approaches, the women struggle to overcome a range of mental and physical limitations. What they create, and their journey along the way, offers an intimate look at what happens to the creative process when every body dances.
