Alzheimer Cafe uporablja filmski jezik, ki spoštuje dokumentarno tradicijo in se oddaljuje od televizijskih dokumentarnih form, ki preplavljajo domačo produkcijo. Odličen tandem režije in kamere nas brez predsodkov popelje v svet starostnikov. Ta je kljub trpkost videti zabaven, zato se malo manj bojimo prihodnosti, v kateri mladi filmski avtorji obetajo kvalitetne dokumentarne izdelke.
