La Siesta Job

Nap time is the perfect moment for a grand escape.

A rebellious elderly woman climbs out of her nursing home window to join her accomplice, who waits below with a beat-up bicycle and a sidecar.

Together, they hit the road to experience an afternoon of romance, freedom, and petty crime in a quiet rural town.

What begins as an endearing and wacky road movie about rebellion in old age conceals a devastating sci-fi twist about grief, memory, and the price we are willing to pay to hold the ones we have lost one last time.
