ZDF documentary follows woman living with early-onset dementia

A new ZDF documentary titled ‘37°: My Way into Forgetting - Living with Early-Onset Dementia’ follows the life of Britta, a 58-year-old former teacher living with Alzheimer's disease.

Britta was diagnosed two years ago after experiencing memory issues that began in her early 50s. The film documents her struggle with the incurable condition, noting that she has lost the ability to drive and requires assistance with daily tasks like packing suitcases. Despite the progressive nature of the disease, Britta aims to raise awareness and maintain her vitality through a ‘carpe diem’ approach to life.
