Kathy Burke examines getting older and her own feelings about what might happen to her in later life. She learns from others who are defying the limits of old age, from a dominatrix in her 70s, to an 85-year-old model raging against ageing.

Kathy examines being young and looks back on her much-loved youth when she was carefree and confident. She explores the freedoms that young people of today have, and what growing up is like nowadays.
