Film Description: "The charming story of how a group of senior citizens managed to transform a useless vacant lot in Montreal belonging to the Jewish General Hospital into a garden of delights—vegetables, flowers, and parties. But the garden means much more to them than what it produces. It has completely changed their attitude about inactivity and retirement." -- National Film Board of Canada (source) |
