GRAMNet Film Series: City of Long Stay

This documentary examines the migration of Europeans and North Americans to Chiang Mai, Thailand, for dementia care. Why are they coming from such seemingly wealthy countries that have excellent health care systems, and what are the implications for health care in Thailand? What are the circumstances driving and drawing people here? The film animates and puts into conversation these questions through interviews with family members of persons living with dementia, the owners and managers of these facilities, and Thai caregivers providing care at the facilities.
