Synopsis

David Johnson awakes from a 50-year coma at the age of 76. While he has a hard time accepting his old body and the fact that he has lost more than half of his life, he quickly makes up for lost time. As David slowly steps into this strange new world, his youthful exuberance is undimmed and, with a little prodding, he tackles life with the energy of a man half his age, revelling in the trappings at his disposal. David lives large, enjoying every moment and indulging his every whim. However, he lacks any real connection to the people around him and becomes increasingly lonely and isolated.
