The film "The Life of Chuck" is a life-affirming drama in which viewers experience the story of accountant Charles "Chuck" Krantz in reverse as the world sinks into a doomsday scenario. The film, which sees itself as an ode to life, focuses on gratitude, family, memory and the small moments of joy in the midst of the impending end. The admission fee of 8 euros includes coffee or tea after the movie.
After the screening, staff from the health department will provide information on the topic of so-called positive psychology. This is a branch of psychology that focuses on well-being and the positive aspects of human life. It was popularized by Martin Seligman in the late 1990s and emphasizes what makes life worth living rather than just treating mental illness. It focuses on topics such as happiness, self-actualization, positive emotions, resilience and strengthening interpersonal relationships. The aim of positive psychology is to help people not only stay mentally healthy, but also to actively improve their quality of life and lead a fulfilling, meaningful life in the long term.
The event is a cooperation between the Stadtseniorenrat Ludwigsburg e.V., the Central Filmtheater Ludwigsburg and the Health Department.
