Description

In the year 2030, there will be over 74 million baby boomers over the age of 65 living in the United States. This number does not include immigrants. The impact this data may have on housing and nursing care for the elderly helped to inspire the creation of 'The Wrinkle Ranch' a fast paced thought provoking story about a group of baby boomers who once lived together in a commune in 1960's California. After decades of separation, the group reconnects in Arizona making a commitment to care for each other to the end...no matter what. It is a heartfelt story about a spirited group of friends now in advancing years forced to ask themselves: Where will I be at the end of my journey? Where will I go when there's no room at the inn? Sharon is a feisty retired emergency room nurse and her son wants to move her into assisted living. She rejects his proposal and within a nation now blindsided by a housing shortage for the elderly, pursues an alternative. While at times humorous, detailed yarns are woven throughout to create layers of mini dramas: a love child, tales of a marriage gone stale, tragic loss, estrangements and love unrealized. It takes the spirit of the Yukon to help a Vietnam veteran tell his story helping him to reconcile with his past. Thought provoking scenes shed light on the effects of government intrusion, shocking exploitation and a debate on euthanasia. Amidst the chaos of barking Chihuahuas and health events managed with medical marijuana, there are joyful reunifications, a finding of true love and the inevitability of saying good-bye.
