When a tour bus carrying senior women breaks down in rural Quebec, Michelle (Michelle Sweeney) the driver goes out to check the engine and injures her ankle in the process, leaving her – and the bus – to be cared for by the elderly passengers. Luckily, among them, there are a lot of practical skills to go around. Catherine (Catherine Roche) is a nun with a working knowledge of mechanics, while Alice (Alice Diabo) is a Native American able to construct traps to catch food.
