Written by Bernard Farrell

Description

A touching and at times hilarious look at aging. The story centres around Alice as she celebrates her 70th birthday. In flashbacks, she recalls former birthdays as her children try to convince her it's time to enter a retirement residence. Alice has other ideas in which her dead husband's partner Jimmy has a major role. A raging bull and faulty hearing aids also figure prominently in the plot.
