The Open Road: America Looks at Aging examines the impending retirement of 77 million baby boomers - the most active, educated and vital demographic group of retirees the country has ever seen - and the staggering impact it will have on American society. This one-hour film explores the lives and work of dynamic and thoughtful individuals whose choices in life reveal the obstacles and opportunities all boomers will confront as they enter life's third stage. The program contains stories of people from all walks of life who have shaped and continue to shape their golden years. The Open Road also profiles retirees who found themselves unprepared for the financial hardships and are forced to return to work, as well as those who choose to volunteer.
