He's 80 years old, with wrinkles, arthritis, cataracts, and the body of a dying man. His mother dies in childbirth and his horrified father abandons him on the porch of a nursing home. Queenie, a caretaker at the home, finds him and raises him as her own. Doctor says he won't live long. But Benjamin doesn't die. He gets younger. As everyone around him ages, his body reverses. At "80" he's in a wheelchair. At "70" he can walk with a cane. At "60" he looks 50. As a "young old man" he meets Daisy, a 6-year-old girl staying at the nursing home with her grandmother. They form a bond. He promises she can dance for him when she's older. Benjamin leaves home as a young man in an old man's body. He works on a tugboat, travels the world, has an affair with a married woman in Russia, and fights in WWII. All the while he's getting physically younger. He and Daisy keep missing each other. When he's 50 in his 30s body, she's a 20-something ballet dancer in New York. When he's 40 in his 40s body, she's 30. Finally, when they're both physically around their mid-30s, their ages line up. They fall in love, buy a house, and have a daughter. But Benjamin keeps getting younger. He realizes he'll become a child while Daisy grows old, and he won't be able to be a father. So he leaves, believing it's kinder. The last act: Benjamin becomes a teenager, then a child with dementia. Daisy finds him in 2003, now an old woman caring for him as a 5-year-old boy who doesn't remember her. He dies in her arms as an infant.
