Never Too Old follows 81-year-old PhD candidate Olive Bryanton as she navigates the final year of her doctorate program at the University of Prince Edward Island. Her research involves her peers, ten women between the ages of 86 and 91, living in rural PEI. As a life-long activist for the rights of seniors, Olive always worked for change but never liked writing. As she prepares her thesis, she struggles with procrastination and self-doubt.
