In this next film in our series, we will watch Eleanor Roosevelt: Close to Home, an overview of the inspirational life of Eleanor Roosevelt and highlights her dedication as champion of social justice and racial equality. The film introduces viewers to Val-Kill, the home of this extraordinary American who became a world leader in human rights and creator of the UDHR. The remarkable modesty, independence and humanitarian leadership that made Eleanor Roosevelt the "First Lady of the World" are reflected in the Cottage's rooms, furnishings and surroundings.

Each film screening coincides with a Senior Nutrition Program meal, a healthy lunch provided for free (or with a non-obligatory, suggested contribution of $3) for seniors 60+. Lunch will be served at noon, followed by the documentary. The screening lasts 15 minutes.
