Hunker Down by Robert F. Benjamin is a timely, heartwarming romantic comedy about older, single adults grappling with isolation during COVID times. During the spring 2020 shutdown, out of desperation, a lonely widow (Bari, played by Anne Myers) pleads to visit with her curmudgeonly neighbor (Kevin, played by Tim Fishbaugh) to meet up. He begrudgingly agrees to meeting on Zoom which sets them off on a journey that surprises them both. .
