Description
A powerful and moving tale of friendship forged through shared understanding of loss. When 12-year-old Alex is sentenced to spend his summer volunteering at a senior living facility, he expects a dull and uneventful experience. Instead, he meets Josey, a 107-year-old man with a remarkable story to tell.
As Alex returns again and again to hear more about Josey's life, an unlikely bond grows between them. Through their conversations, Alex learns valuable lessons about resilience, courage, and the importance of human connection. But can he rise to the occasion of his life, even if it means confronting the worst thing he's ever done?
