(2012)Jesse Fisher, a 35-year-old admissions officer at a New York City college, has lost his passion for life. His recent breakup only adds to his emotional struggles. However, Jesse's life takes a turn when he attends the retirement dinner of his second-favorite college professor, Peter Hoberg, in Ohio. Jesse encounters five individuals who may help him rediscover his passion: Hoberg, who resists retirement; Judith Fairfield, Jesse's favorite professor for different reasons than Hoberg; Nat, an independent spirit who navigates college life on his own terms; Dean, an undergraduate student who reminds Jesse of his younger, destructive self; and Zibby, a 19-year-old undergraduate who is mature beyond her years. Despite their sixteen-year age difference, Jesse embarks on a relationship with Zibby, hoping to reignite his passion for life.
