The Gin Game background

The Gin Game

In a game of Gin, Weller Martin finds himself outmatched by more than just his opponent.

In a seniors' residence, Weller Martin, afflicted with the weight of age, forms an unlikely bond with Fonsia Dorsey, a diabetic woman. As they engage in a game of Gin Rummy, they lament societal issues, hospital woes, financial struggles, and the challenges of their golden years. Fonsia, a novice at the game, surprisingly excels, leaving Weller increasingly frustrated as he struggles to keep up.
