他叫爱迪，一位退伍老兵，游乐场维修工。八十三岁生日那天，他为了拯救在突发事故中身处险境的女孩而殒命游乐场。醒来时，爱迪已身处天堂，这才发现：那里并不是牧歌萦绕的伊甸园，而是地球上生活片断的交叠重现。五个被爱迪或铭记或忽略或遗忘的人，轮流登场，引领他寻找逝去的时光，追问人生的谜底。

Plot Eddie is a wounded war veteran, an old man who has lived, in his mind, an uninspired life. His job is fixing rides at a seaside amusement park. On his 83rd birthday, a tragic accident kills him, as he tries to save a little girl from a falling cart. He awakes in the afterlife, where he learns that heaven is not a destination. It's a place where your life is explained to you by five people, some of whom you knew, others who may have been strangers. One by one, from childhood to soldier to old age, Eddie's five people revisit their connections to him on earth, illuminating the mysteries of his "meaningless" life, and revealing the haunting secret behind the eternal question: "Why was I here?"
