Summary:
The director learns she has breast cancer, and her life is turned upside down. Her journey through the medical world, part of an artistic and personal quest, achieves unprecedented intimacy with the disease. The film weaves a dialogue between conventional and alternative medicines, as the patient explores both physical and emotional healing. Breast cancer affects one in every nine women. Isn't it time we understood this illness a little better?
