Eddie is a bitter war veteran who feels trapped in a life he did not want for himself. He works in an amusement park fixing the rides. Eddie feels he has not done anything worthwhile with his life, it makes him feel unfilled and bitter. On Eddie's 83rd birthday, he is in a tragic accident and dies trying to save the life of a little girl. When he dies, he wakes in heaven, where he finds out that heaven is not what he was taught it would be.

In the heaven, Eddie discover, it is a place where your life is explain to you by five people. The people Eddie meets in heaven are people whom he may had loved or strangers who may had touched his life without him knowing. In heaven, these five people show Eddie all the connection of his life and the events that shape him.

The five people you meet in heaven is a beautiful story about reflection and the afterlife. It will teach us the meaning of life while we are here.
