Lois Smith, Jon Hamm, Tim Robbins and Geena Davis star in this US drama based on the play by Jordan Harrison. Thanks to technological advances, dementia-sufferer Marjorie (Smith) is able to reunite with a young holographic representation of her late husband Walter (Hamm). Her daughter Tess (Davis) and her husband Jon (Robbins) think the Prime will help stimulate her memory by reliving their past experiences together but they soon become jealous of the affection young Walter is receiving.
