Roger Westman of Naperville plays Mr. Green, an elderly, retired dry cleaner who wanders into New York traffic and is almost hit by a car driven by Ross Gardiner, a yuppie American Express executive, played by Chris Richardson of Oak Park. The young man is given a community service of helping the recent widower once a week for six months. But the relationship is not an easy one.

What starts as a comedy about two men who do not want to be in the same room together becomes a gripping and moving drama as they get to know each other, come to care about each other, and open old wounds they've been hiding and nursing for years.
