Inge Daniels film She Waves at Me explores what it feels like to be an
aging body in an aging housing estate in Central London. The film, based on 18
months of ethnographic fieldwork (2020-2022), juxtaposes the intricate care
that goes into maintaining the buildings and their surroundings with elderly
inhabitants struggles and strategies to create safe and comfortable homes for
themselves and their loved ones. The webinar will be 90 minutes long, starting
with Inges short introduction to the film, followed by our watching the film
together (20 minutes long), and ending with a Q&A for 20-30 minutes.
