Informatie over het evenement

When 93-year-old Thelma Post gets duped by a phone scammer pretending to be her grandson, she sets out on a treacherous quest across the city to reclaim what was taken from her.

Thelma lives alone in a Los Angeles condo. Widowed two years prior, she’s on the precipice of independence, one fall or forgotten keys away from full-time care. Her daughter Gail and son-in-law Alan, hawkishly scan for signs of her decline. Only her beloved grandson Danny, a lost twentysomething struggling with independence of a different variety, engages with her as a full person, though he too over-presumes her handicaps.

The journey, a Tom Cruise-inspired action arc if the obstacles were stairs and the gadgets hearing aids, is a delight to behold. Thelma is slickly made, real-life grandmother sweet, overall warm and winsome. What a joy to witness it. – Adrian Horton – The Guardian
