About to hit 50, obsessed with sex, cocaine-fueled, and gripped by a crippling fear of death, Professor Michael Cole is finding life a bit of a struggle. He knows the time has come to act his age—the question is how. It's when he's caught in the act of adultery by his grandmother that Michael truly begins to see the writing on the wall. After all, she's been dead for 25 years.
