Three old men in their sixties and seventies refuse to accept the age limits in life. When they hear of a young European girl coming to town and find the youngsters around them sharpening their skills to impress the lady and ‘score’ with her, their competitive instincts are aroused. They join the race. What do they equip themselves with to make an impact on the lady... and how they approach the social issues concerning the interactions between the infatuated youngsters and themselves is the crux of the story. What happens when the girl actually arrives? Does she react to the charms and wiles of the old gentlemen? Or does she succumb to the fresher, physically fit and intellectually more contemporary youngsters? That’s the climax. Return of the Dirty Old Men is a light-hearted comedy that touches on a few serious subjects albeit fleetingly.
