The Last Waltz is a touching story about a 92-year-old man named Waltz who has
gone into a coma because of the severity of his condition.
He has pushed others away for much of his adult life because of his wife's
death, and is scarred by the happenings of his military experience.
One day, Waltz suddenly wakes out of his coma, and spends what little time
he has left trying to get in touch
with his estranged family and making peace with God.
Cast
Waltz- Buzz Rahm- a 90 something year old man,
