I don't think it's on Netflix now, but watch for it.

The bus carrying a group of women from a senior center breaks down in the middle of nowhere, and the group has to spend the night at an abandoned farm. As they settle in, they talk about life and death. The actresses are all non-professionals, and the stories they tell are all based on their own real lives. A must for anyone interested in women's issues or aging issues, or simply a sweet, thoughtful movie.
