The movie is about the owner (Hathaway) of a fashion website, who starts a community outreach program seeking ‘senior’ interns. She’s thinks that high school and college seniors will apply, however she gets a surprised when she discovers that her intern is a 70-year-old man (Robert De Niro), who proves to be surprising asset to her company.
