Memories for Life: Telling the Human Story of Alzheimer’s Through Film | ft. Hideyuki Tokigawa, Director

In this episode of The Aging Well Podcast, Dr. Jeff Armstrong speaks with filmmaker Hideyuki Tokigawa, director and producer of the documentary 'Memories for Life: Reversing Alzheimer’s'.

Rather than focusing only on science, the film centers on people—those living with cognitive decline, the families who love them, and the clinicians who walk alongside them. Hideyuki shares why he chose to tell this story, how he built trust with families during vulnerable moments, and what making this film taught him about memory, identity, love, and resilience.

This is a conversation about storytelling as healing, about dignity in aging, and about what it means to remember—and be remembered.
