About
A young homeless man begins helping in a retirement home. By living and working there, he is confronted more and more by the problems of aging. When asked to interview some residents for a paper he records lonely depressed men, a woman afflicted with Alzheimer's, and men and women highly alert into their nineties but physically handicapped. All residents are glad somebody is listening to them. Through their talking, Jacob realizes that to become old is hard work and his life is changed forever.
