Is That You, Cecelia?

Leslie Clemins is 29, still lives with her parents and for all intents and purposes, is a loser. She’s committed to a life ran by her own self-serving, self-righteous, neurotic theories. When she’s arrested for an outburst at a Subway Sandwich shop over an “unfair coupon," she’s forced to do community service. There, she meets Casper Randazzo, a 74-year-old alcoholic. When Casper reveals Leslie looks exactly like his recently deceased wife, Cecelia, Leslie skips out on her community service and moves in with Casper at the 55 and older community, "LeisureVillage.” As Leslie becomes entangled in Casper and Cecelia’s life, the dysfunctional relationship leads to revelations about themselves and Cecelia, proving it’s never too late to grow up.
