The zest for living is palpable in this expressive animation. An elderly lady wants to celebrate life and consume love. Her meddling daughter finds this hard to accept.
A caring daughter reluctantly sees her elderly mother reclaim control of her life. The latter feels that if she will die anyway, she prefers to do so with love and fun. And with booze, cigarettes and some action between the sheets. The men who are attracted by her personal ads, like flies by honey, are thrown out by the annoyed daughter. And talking of flies... they are a persistent pest as well. She fails to kill them, as they turn out to be mother’s friends, who in this imaginative animation bring about a climax.
