Lessons from 100

“Lessons from 100” is a documentary feature, featuring Jack Weber, who turned 100 years old in 2024. In conversation with his filmmaker grandson, he explores his life and how much the world has changed over the last century. Along with the conversations, the documentary includes the 100th birthday celebrations, home movies, still photographs, and visits to important places and events from both Jack’s past and daily life. By exploring Jack’s journey, we learn poignant lessons we can all take to heart – not only what it takes to live a long life, but what we need to do to make it a meaningful life.
Documentary release date this year in 2025.
