Eddie is a wounded war veteran, an old man who has lived,
in his mind, an uninspired life. His job is fixing rides at
a seaside amusement park. On his 83rd birthday, a tragic
accident kills him as he tries to save a little girl from a
falling cart. He awakes in the afterlife, where he learns
that heaven is not a destination. It's a place where your
life is explained to you by five people, some of whom you
knew, others who may have been strangers. One by one, from
childhood to soldier to old age, Eddie's five people
revisit their connections to him on earth, illuminating the
mysteries of his "meaningless" life, and revealing the
haunting secret behind the eternal question: "Why was I
here?"
