A never-say-die crew of army veterans must work together to break out of lockdown and pursue their dreams. First step? Escape their retirement home!

Jack (James Cromwell) fakes a stroke to gain entry into the retirement home of his long-lost love Norma (Jacki Weaver). To Jack’s dismay, just as he is being admitted, they transfer Norma to an Alzheimer’s clinic offsite and now he’s stuck. As luck would have it a few Jack’s old war buddies also live in the home and his arrival becomes the catalyst they need to break free and live life to its fullest. Jack Thompson charms in this warm Aussie comedy that boasts a star-studded cast of beloved Australian actors who are not afraid to have a laugh about the challenges of getting older.
