Ten years in the making, “Cookies 4 Jane” recounts the final chapters of the life of a beloved matriarch, Jane, as she battles Alzheimer’s Disease. Filmed, edited, and directed by Jane’s granddaughter, Mary, this intimate documentary condenses four years of raw footage into an hour-long, heart-rending, inspirational, and delightfully educational piece.

Narrated from a unique, second-person perspective, Mary’s vision is clear; “If you can’t remember, I’ll remember for you.” With first hand accounts from Jane’s family, friends, and caregivers, the viewer becomes immersed in the challenges of managing even the most basic of daily routines while living with this progressive and ultimately fatal disease.

While we have yet to find a cure for Alzheimer’s Disease, there is hope on the horizon. Every day we continue to gain knowledge and make scientific advances that lead us one step closer to finding a cure. In the meantime, take one last trip with Jane, and witness directly what the power of love, determination, and lots of cookies can achieve in the hands of a family united for a single cause.
