Theocharis, a lonely elderly man, goes to the local hospital every night. He sleeps on the benches and chairs of the outpatient clinics because he is afraid of staying alone in his own home. Every morning he returns home, where his only companions are his cat and his memories. One night a nurse, Eugenia, encounters him and tries to find out more about him. At first, Theocharis is cautious and refuses to give her any information. Soon enough, however, a relationship of trust begins to develop between them, and Eugenia pledges to try to help him with life’s challenges. A touching, gently humorous film about loneliness and, more importantly, compassion, Senior Citizen is a quiet, absorbing drama.

Theocharis, une personne âgée qui se sent seul, va à l’hôpital tous les soirs pour y passer la nuit. Il dort sur les bancs et les chaises des cliniques externes parce qu’il a peur d’être seul dans sa propre maison. Tous les matins, il retourne chez lui où ses seuls compagnons sont son chat et ses souvenirs. Une nuit, une infirmière, Eugenia, le découvre et tente d’en savoir plus sur lui. Au début, Theocharis est méfiant et il refuse de lui dire quoi que ce soit. Malgré tout, une relation de confiance ne tarde pas à se former entre les deux, et Eugenia promet d’essayer de l’aider face aux défis de la vie. Un film touchant à l’humour doux et mieux encore, plein de compassion, Senior Citizen est un drame tranquille et absorbant.
