After a near-death experience lights a flame within Grandma and Grandpa, they decide to grab life by the boas and tell the world their deepest secret: They're both gay. Having lived under the guise of a straight relationship for decades, these two life-long best friends have been each other’s beards for 50 years. And hunny, these beards are giving us Abraham Lincoln chin-curtain realness. But now they’re coming out of the closet, ditching their small-town hetero life, and going after their big gay dreams. First stop, the big city, to learn “how to be gay” from the best gay people they know: their grandchildren! It’s a big gay family after all (there must be something in the water.) Mason and Rebecca-Michelle help their grandparents maneuver the queer dating scene, dating apps, queer fashion, and even a gay dodgeball league. It’s a late-in-life coming-out story about family, marriage, friendship, acceptance and empowering one another to love authentically, no matter what age you are.
