"Contrasts the care of the aged in Canada with Denmark. Denmark's approach of integrating the elderly into the community is presented as an alternative to the North American practice of isolating them in large institutions."

"This film shows how Denmark has worked at providing a variety of alternate housing for the aging and for the handicapped. The film shows the need for independence and mixed housing."
