AAFL TV is currently in production on a film, The Opposite of a Fairy Tale, in which a social worker, Celeste, befriends an elderly patient at a nursing home and uncovers what most of America is unaware of – the all too typical and all too secret world of elder abuse.
The film focuses on (1) changing community attitudes about elder abuse, (2) making Asian communities more accepting of survivors, particularly when women are the victims and (3) educating viewers on how to prevent and address elder abuse through easily accessible, entertaining and creative storytelling.
