Still Alice

Alice Howland is a woman who lives through her brain.

A brilliant university professor, her life makes a dog-leg turn when she's diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's.

As the condition progresses, she begins to find her memories calving, floating away and dissolving; slowly she loses the understanding of the people around her. Her nearest. Her dearest. She begins to lose herself.

In spite of everything that is happening to her - is she still Alice?

Based on Lisa Genova's 2007 best-selling novel, Christine Mary Dunford's dramatization was first produced in 2013.
