No matter how old we get, we're always coming of age.

Nina and her mother Lillian navigate a bumpy road as two elders-a daughter starting her sixth decade, a mother starting her ninth-a path complicated by Lillian's deteriorating cognition.

After Nina retires to care for her father Cal in his final year, she struggles with the often tense and impersonal relationship she has with her mother Lillian, a social activist who has always put the cause above all else-even her own daughters.
