A curmudgeon and his eccentric new roommate join
together to plan an epic escape in this charming, poignant
tale. Joel lives in a nursing home, and he’s not one bit happy
about it. He hates being told when to eat, when to sleep,
when to take his pills. He’s fed up with life and begins to
plan a way out when his new roommate, a retired soap opera
actor named Frank, moves in and turns the nursing-home
community upside down. Though the two men couldn’t be more opposite, a fast
friendship is formed when Frank is the only one who listens
to and stands up for Joel. When he tells Frank about his
burgeoning plan, they embark together on a mission to find
the perfect escape, and along the way will discover that
it’s never too late for new beginnings. Filled with colorful characters, sparkling humor and deep
emotion, The Great Unexpected is the story of
friendship, finding oneself later in life and experiencing
newfound joy in the most unexpected places.
