SYNOPSIS: “It is forty years into the future and, following decades of research and trillions of euros spent on genetics, Europe is finally in a position to rejuvenate a human being. The first subject for treatment is Jeff Baker, the father of the datasphere (which replaced the Internet) and philanthropist extraordinaire. After eighteen months in a German medical facility, the seventy-eight-year-old patient returns home looking like a healthy twenty-year-old.
Misspent Youth follows the effects his reappearance has on his family and friends – his young ex-model wife Sue, his teenage son Tim, and his long term pals, themselves – all pensioners – who are starting to resent what Jeff has become.”
