Recently widowed, Anna is visited by her three middle-aged children who have decided that the family house must be sold and Anna move either to a residential home or sheltered housing. In fact, anywhere so long as it's not with any of them. However, their veneer of filial concern doesn't fool Anna who has other ideas. Far from suffering from the dementia her children imagine she is starting, Anna has organized her own future in Florida that doesn't include any of her selfish offspring, although it does encompass the new man in her life.
