Geborgenheit im Alter 1981 Directed by Peter Petersen

Becoming old - the autumn of man's life is the same the world over, wherever he lives. But the way one spends old age is different everywhere, and distinguishes one society from another. How do senior citizens live in the GDR - what are pensioners lives like? Are they alone, forgotten or do they live with others? What is done in this country for the older generation, the generation which built up the country and which can now sit back?
