    • Synopsis
    • An eighteen year old boy gets a job in a nursing home and develops a deep emotional attachment to an old man. Discovering that the old man, along with the other patients, is being overmedicated to make him easier to manage, the boy weans the old man of his medication and helps him escape, resulting in a road trip across the country. The always provocative Bruce LaBruce is back with a new romantic comedy (of sorts).
