An introduction from the director of Take Care (The Unheard Stories), Zoë Templeman-Young.
After a certain point you just have to go along and redirect the delusion of your demented person instead of trying to convince them of the truth! Telling someone that they have dementia is deeply upsetting. If you ever have to deal with someone who has dementia you have to put on an act that everything is normal and that it’s totally okay to slip up and say something crazy because if you don’t you won’t be able to convince them, you’ll only create a divide between you and them they might start distrusting you and start working against you because they perceive you as dangerous because they are confused. To them you are the one who’s making outrageous statements. They believe that they know themselves and how the world works and there’s that lunatic infront of them who tells them that they are at home even if they clearly don’t recognise where they are, they remember themselves as in their 30’s going to work everyday and you are the madman who’s accusing them of having something called dementia being a retired old person who has to live in a senior home even though they clearly remember what just happened at work.
I could not take my eyes off! Extraordinary performance! And as for Graham, treat people with dignity, that’s my take away! Caring is such a personal human job! Emulating Family.
He's so talented and handsome (and he talks with his hands a lot) ❤
How much I want Freddy to continue as Kaz #SaveShadowAndBone #SixOfCrowsSpinOff❤
✨panic panic✨
I want to hang out with the real Graham he sounds so fun
really enjoyed this. :)
I am watching everything that has freddy carter in it
He's such a good actor, I felt every emotion. I loved when he would ask "Mum" questions...his voiced changed and it was so light and pleasant.
I've only seen him as Jesper and in interviews and I LOVE how he changed his accent here to (I assume) match Graham's. He's a rising talent for sure!
I love freddy
Wait, theme by Kit Young... Is that *the* Kit Young? Also, that was... wow.
i love him way too much for it to be normal 🤣🤣🤣
Come for Freddy Carter stay for the story, I'm crying at the end remembering that I used to take care of my grandma, I miss her so much...
Я недавно потеряла бабушку. Три месяца назад. У неё была деменция и я ухаживала за ней, долго. Спасибо за это видео. Я поплакала и стало немного легче.
he did an amazinggggg job performing this monologue! it was so realistic
I love this man's smile so, so much! It is probably the warmest smile I've ever seen on a person. Also, my grandma has dementia and I could heavily relate to everything he was saying. Such a great act!
Came here for Freddy, left with some sound wisdom to bear in mind as my grandparents move in to my parents’ house in the next couple of months.
Imagine this being *your* story and freaking *Freddy Carter* does this wonderful job of telling it
his acting AND he composed the theme music?? kit is SO talented- and unrelated but his voice is so soothing
He is sooo cutee
I didn't knew that he was acting at first
excuse me, but the theme is by KIT YOUNG
Really?
@@mystix4727 yep you can see it at 12:00
@@froggybean8591 sorry if this is a weird question but wha do you mean by theme english is not my native language.
@@padfoot374 It means the music that is playing here. Kit Young wrote it.
i just clicked cause i saw kaz and was like hmmm
Ele é tão fofo a
What is this about?? 👁👄👁
I came here for Freddy but I can relate to Flo so much, my eyes watered as I remembered my own grandma and how much of a joy it was to be around her and get to know the "new" her after the dementia had taken over. I miss you and love you forever.
Is it just me or did he say bf?
He's playing a girl character
Why haven't I seen this before lmao
im so confused
Same lol
Freddy Carter is being fed a true story from some else’s life and has to act it out as if it was his own. It’s basically showing off his acting skills.
gosh this is so raw and genuine acting..you feel as if he's talking to you...
I agree that Mr. Young is great but let's also appreciate Graham for a bit! What a fabulous person.
Congrats ecoute good to see the film version x
Thank you so much Anne, much love to you and yours x
Good actor ... fabulous eyebrows
О чем он говорит? Помогите
Говорил о трудностях ухода за бабушкой с деменцией, ему было 14, что он жил с ней и мамой, я так поняла. Тут в комментах пишут, что тут он играет, а не говорит о своей жизни, чёт не похоже...
@@Sundoormaster это актерская игра, монолог о деменции, о том какого жить с человеком с деменцией.
How is he so good??? I mean his acting is💯
the TALENT <3
I have no idea who this man is but everyone seems to love him so I guess he's good 😭
He's Freddy Carter. He plays Kaz Brekker in Netflix's Shadow and bone. :)
...did i see kit young?
kit really excels in the physicality of his acting !
its really bizarre seeing freddy act out this scene bc it feels like hes taken a scene straight out of my life. i know this isnt his personal story but he acted it out so well im sitting here crying while my own grandma with dementia sleeps in the other room. its so strange how the world works sometimes.
So handsome and TALENTED
I call my grandma, “mom”, too 😂
I saw Jasper fahey's name in the credits as well.
So he's playing character of a girl right?
This is so moving
so excited to see kit as jesper and rafal
When he started talking about having a different kind of humor that is so true. When we were putting my grandma into a nursing home (she also had dementia) my uncle said that it would be fun because she would meet new people everyday. I didn’t realize how sad that was at the time.
cant wait to see him as jesper
He's so good I didn't even realize he was acting at first
It was acting!? Ohhh shit
