Alte Menschen

'Old People' deals with a subject which was to preoccupy filmmaker Ulrich Seidl over many years and across a number of films: it portrays old people both at home and in nursing homes. This TV-report was produced as part of the 3-Sat series "Inter City" and deploys a typical TV commentary, a device Seidl has almost never used but which at the time was mandatory with this TV company.
