DESCRIPTION:
Five More Minutes is a playful and uplifting story of how an elderly couple, Don and Myrna, finds happiness even during the most challenging times.
Don and Myrna love to create imaginative adventures in the backyard of their 1-bedroom rental apartment. They pretend together that they travel the world and eat in the finest restaurants, stay at 5-star resorts after their long days working at the box store and Movie theater.
Their relationship is built on the power of imagination until one of them has a hard time distinguishing between the real world and their imagined world.
