First I must state I watched this flick a few weeks ago before writing this review. I had to read up on the plot as I had forgotten what it is all about.
The message of this story is (in my opinion) - don't let life get away without doing what you really want to do. Unfortunately life cannot pass you by or get away because as you are alive you are living a life. And just because you might be experiencing frustration or loneliness in this life does not mean life is passing you by!
These women just had an interest outside of their everyday life but not the will or ability to pursue their inner desire. So they are still living life - nothing has passed them by. It's an unfortunate title for this rather bland story.
