THE SENIOR is a documentary that breaks stereotypes and reveals the humanity of seniors living life to the fullest in a Texas retirement community. Through the 88-year-old incumbent mayor returning to the dating scene, a southern lady devoted to her late husband, and an amusing firecracker of a woman with a sharp wit and intact tongue, the film intimately explores the eternal struggle for love and connection. THE MAYOR's octogenarians defied cultural expectations and demonstrated how our golden years can be as significant a time, challenging and triumphing as any other.
