The MayorSenior love lives abound in The Mayor, the true story of an 88-year-old tail chaser, an adoring widow, and a raunchy gossip queen living it up in a retirement home in Texas. A 68-minute feature documentary crowd-pleaser made in Dallas-Fort Worth, The Mayor explores the lives of a handful of vivacious seniors continuing to make meaning, search for connections, and ultimately triumph in old age.

The Fort Worth Star-Telegram praised the film as “a true discovery”, and Oxford American called The Mayor “one of those lucky few [docs] that, once viewed, sticks in the mind like only the deepest, truest art can.”
