Appropriately, the venue is Green\-Wood Cemetery in Brooklyn\. *The Oldest Person in the World*, directed by Oscar nominee Sam Green, is a decade\-long global journey chronicling the ever\-changing list of record holders for the title of oldest person alive\. What begins as a portrait of longevity becomes a meditation on the passage of time, the randomness of fate, and the joy and profound human experience of being alive\. After the film, Green will be joined by features director Reyhan Harmanci to talk about a very WIRED topic—longevity\. What we can learn from these “super agers,” and why people are so obsessed with the quest for a long life\. Are we here for a good time, or a long time? ## EVENT INFO **Thursday, July 23 \| 7:45 pm** **Green\-Wood Cemetery** **Brooklyn, New York** **General Admission:**$22$12 for WIRED readers Copresented with Rooftop Films Subscribers get first access to purchasing tickets for WIRED@Night AND save $10 per ticket—plus all the other amazing benefits of a WIRED subscription\.**Go[here](https://rooftopfilms.com/event/the-oldest-person-in-the-world/)to purchase tickets, using the discount code “WIRED\.”** Not able to make it, but want to be kept up\-to\-date on all of WIRED's future events?
