Christine (75) and her roommate Eva (74) are living in an old peoples' home. For Christine, her life stopped when she lost her husband a few years ago. Not even her optimistic roommate can change that, even though they match well with their common sense for sarcasm and a mutual disliking of the head nurse Marianne. Not even Robert's (79) creative attempts to catch her attention can penetrate her sour shell. One night, Eva abducts her to a trip to the “Anaconda”, where she is being confronted with a flashy and entertaining world she feels way to old for. Will she be able to reinvent herself and let go of her apathetic view on life for once?
