Through this unique presentation of David's conversations with seniors, he hopes to inspire us to think about aging as being a continually updated present, to listen to our elders not as shadows of their pasts, but vividly alive even if in smaller orbits. When combined with the mood of Paul Cebar's completely original music, the emotional range of the material moves from laughter to chills and tears.
