Movie Screening Fundraiser | Ruby’s Choice

Acclaimed philanthropist Sir Owen Glenn of the Glenn Family Foundation funded the production of Ruby’s Choice, an Australian feature film starring Jane Seymour OBE.

Dementia Foundation for Spark for Life is the official charity associated with the film. Over four years, the Dementia Foundation for Spark of Life and Dementia Care International supported producer and director Michael Budd and his team from Amazing People Pictures in the groundwork of this film. Here is your chance to also support this important cause.

Ruby’s Choice is a globally important film of our time. It tells the story of Ruby, a woman living alone with early dementia and its impact on her and her family when she is no longer able to live independently. The film shows through Ruby’s granddaughter Tash’s eyes the humanity of dementia – that there is still a person there with memories, emotion and value.

Highly regarded and accomplished actor Jane Seymour OBE will portray the character of Ruby, a loving person and grandmother. Jane is well known for her extensive career in film, theatre and TV and through her performance will put a spotlight on the human perspective of dementia. She draws inspiration from her own mother who was a Dutch prisoner of war and a courageous role model.
