Synopsis: | This is a sensitive and perceptive look at the elderly residents of a small private hotel which is set to close. Although most of them have lived there for a number of years, they are all just biding their time. All their dreams and hopes for the future are based in the past. They will soon be homeless; this fact, and an attempted suicide, force all the residents to admit that they have been living an illusion. They toast the future, no longer waiting for yesterday. | |||||
