Award winning filmmaker, Susie Singer-Carter and spokesperson for NO COUNTRY FOR OLD PEOPLE, a nursing home exposé, proudly announced today that the documentary has won an Anthem Award in the category of Health Awareness - Film, Video, Television or Show in The 4th Annual Anthem Awards.

No Country for Old People: A filmmaker chronicles the last 6 months of her mother’s life in a 5-star nursing home and discovers the system designed to protect our most vulnerable has been flouted by venture capitalists and real estate investment trusts. For decades greed has caused millions of people insufferable consequences and even death, yet most of the public has no idea until it’s too late. No Country for Old People is a cautionary tale and a public rally for change.

"Stories have the power to reach where statutes and regulations fall short," said Mountcastle (Co-Producer and former United States Attorney). "This series exposes what the public hasn’t seen—and what some institutions would rather keep hidden. We hope it inspires outrage, awareness, and ultimately, reform." Country for Old People - A Nursing Home Exposé will be available for streaming on Amazon beginning August 1, 2025.

No Country for Old People will air on Amazon on August 1st, followed by Hoopla, Spectrum, Charter, Cox, Xfinity, Tubi, VA Media, Prime AVOD, Gan Jing World, and Vyre Network (Dates and times TBA)
