The plot

Aged and suffering, Edward Goodman is 80 years old and at death’s door. Yet all of a sudden the ageing process inexplicably goes into reverse: to the amazement of Juliet, the desirable young nurse who watches over him, Edward starts getting younger, at the rate of a year each day. One week later he is 73 years old, after two weeks he is 66 and so it goes. Under the spell of this incredible phenomenon, the once old man sees his whole world transformed. Miraculously he has been given the gift of 80 days to relive his entire life, in reverse. Everything becomes possible… again! But what will happen at the end of this borrowed time?
