What it's like being a modern man

The mini-career resurrection of Les Dennis continues in this comic caper, which asks just what it means to be a modern man, as a terminally ill company executive, with a new perspective on life, takes three of his employees on a think-tank holiday. Examining the relationships men form as fathers, husbands, and sons, this occasionally touching and frequently funny mix of reality and fiction is sure to provide a pleasant afternoon with its surprisingly catchy and enjoyable musical numbers.
