Close Harmony (1981)
A chorus of 4th- and 5th-graders at the Brooklyn Friends School and a chorus of elderly retirees at a Brooklyn Jewish seniors’ center combine to give an annual joint concert. Practicing separately for several months while communicating only as pen pals, they eventually meet for a rehearsal prior to their concert. The children’s various preconceptions about older people, as well as the seniors’ approach to aging and their young co-performers, are a principal focus.
