This photo essay was taken in a nursing home in rural Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, and reflects on how our society treats its elderly. The facility struggles with limited resources, relying solely on donations, yet the staff do their best with care and dedication. The real issue, however, lies beyond these walls—in a society that often neglects those who paved the way for us. It's a contradiction we seldom acknowledge, as we all age and may one day face the same reality. How can we create a society that values its elderly and ensures their final chapter is lived with dignity?
