A documentary on the longevity revolution, with pioneering seniors who are actively challenging stereotypes about retirement and a passive old age. From Canada's Raging Grannies to the SeniorNet in the US and the Mouvement de la Flamboyance in France, seniors involved in environment, politics, community action and work with young people are demanding that our societies change their views on aging.

With Betty Friedan, author of The Fountain of Age, Robert Butler, founder of the International Longevity Center, New York, and Monique Vézina, former Minister for Seniors (1988-93) and president of the International Year of Seniors.
