Set in 1950s London, the film follows Williams, a veteran civil servant buried under office paperwork as the city rebuilds after World War II. Receiving a devastating medical diagnosis, he empties his savings account and heads to the coast. He promises to make his last days a meaningful time, but realizes he doesn't know how to do it. After being whisked into town by a mysterious stranger, Williams is intrigued by a young co-worker who seems to possess the vitality he had lost. With the help of his optimistic colleague, Williams puts all his efforts into surprisingly making those around him happy.
