- Summary
- Don Celestino has not spoken to his grumpy older brother, Don Fidencio, in years, ever since...well, it's not quite clear what started off the estrangement. At any rate, prompted by his lovely housekeeper (and much younger love), Socorro, Celestino frees Fidencio from the terrible nursing home his daughter and son-in-law have placed him in, and the two aging, bickering men (and hopeful Socorro) take off on a journey to Mexico, where they hope to investigate the old family legend at the heart of their dispute. -- Description by Shauna Griffin
