July 28, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): Veteran American actress Jane Fonda is going to play the role of a hippie grandmother in her latest film Peace, Love and Misunderstanding. In her youthful days, Fonda was a peace protester and she can relive those days again through this movie. She was also a former fashion model and fitness guru.

The movie is about the 1969 notorious Woodstock festival. On her blog, the Oscar winning actress has posted photographs from the film’s set. In the film, Fonda as the aging hippie meets her grandchildren for the first time in Woodstock, where they were brought by their mother, who is a neurotic New York City lawyer. Her daughter, who is fleeing a scary divorce, gets plunged into Fonda’s motley crew of free thinkers.

Being a veteran anti-war activist in real life, the role comes naturally to Fonda. In the seventies, the actress, who was also a political activist, went to Vietnam to protest against the American involvement.

The release date of the film is not decided yet.
