Let us share the emotional journey of Billy Corass, a long-distance runner, who is forced into an aged-care facility after a mid-race incident. She's angry that decisions have been made on her behalf without her consent, but she's determined to regain control.

Billy always thought her fitness and intelligence gave her autonomy. So, finding herself in a place like Fairview filled with the frail and the ageing is alarming. However, with her choices taken from her, she must navigate this alien world until she can get her life back on track. As she waits, she resolves not to succumb to the same fate as her fellow residents, whom she sees as faceless, history-less and devoid of purpose, and only waiting for their final moment.

As Billy suppresses her aversion to the undeniable signs of ageing that surround her, she's surprised by the profound insights, experiences, and relationships that Fairview offers her.

Can Billy use these other perspectives of ageing to shape her future? Or has she missed an opportunity to seize control of her next chapter?
