Film Description

Nora  feels defeated and under-stimulated when she must move into an Assisted Living facility, but soon she forges a friendship with Edna, a spunky, wheelchair-riding rebel with memory problems. The nursing staff are in for more than they can handle when they discover that this feisty duo has made a break for it to take one last big road trip adventure in this Thelma and Louise meets Grace and Frankie dramedy.
