Everybody Rides the Carousel, Part 3
- 1976 ----- color ----- 29 min ----- 16mm
- Ride number seven is the stage of the adult. It is the longest ride, a struggle between generativity (caring, producing, creating and parenting) and stagnation. We see a teenage girl trying to communicate with her parents; a couple struggling to express their intimate feelings. And then we are on the last ride, ride eight: old age, the culmination of the first seven stages. Animated vignettes illustrate the various ways elderly people face aging and the idea of their approaching death. Based on psychosocial theory of Dr. Erik Erikson.
