Welcome back to the movies at the Paddo! Come down and join us for The Grey Escape.
This charming road trip movie sees a group of seniors combat social isolation, build connection and feel the wind in their hair. Across the Western world, millions of elderly people live in nursing homes, often lonely, isolated and without mobility. But these elderly people are breaking free!
The Grey Escape follows a life-changing journey for a group of Danish elderly people who travel from Denmark to Norway to deliver rickshaws to their Norwegian neighbours.
Meet Marie (96) and Finn (81) who overcome their issues and grow closer. The only problem is Marie thinks Finn is too young for her...
