Michael Caine plays a retired magician who reluctantly enters a family-run old age home.

Set in a seaside English town circa 1987, the film charts the unlikely friendship that develops between Caine's proud, acerbic old performer and the death-obsessed young son of the home's overwhelmed owners. Writer Peter Harness drew from his own experience growing up in a retirement home.
Is Anybody There? is screening at Rialto Tauranga.
