Overview
A film about connecting with family, the struggles faced by our elderly community, and LGBTQ storytelling. Fearing he’s wasting his life, Nick, an aspiring playwright, helps prepare his iconoclastic and gay great-uncle, Dr. Nicolaas Broekhuysen, for a transition into assisted living, unaware they share more in common than just a name.
