Vertebral Column S01E02 · O melhor do Mundo são os velhinhos

Overview

In a human and reflective tone, 'O melhor do Mundo são os velhinhos' explores the growing loneliness among the elderly in Portugal and the silent, yet essential, role of the GNR (National Republican Guard) in combating this reality. Based on the 'Idosos em Segurança' program, the text shows how closeness, listening, and a simple ring of the doorbell can make a difference in the lives of those who have lost almost everything—except the desire to be remembered. A reflection on aging, abandonment, and the importance of not leaving anyone behind.
