Oliver – a 28 year-old spends his days hanging out with his friends, studying and trying to charm his new girlfriend.

Minimal distractions from his father, best friend and fellow-patient Eva keep him occupied.

Kristian – a Danish filmmaker brings this diagnosis to life that is often a dark reality for many people. Oliver struggles with maintaining the happy-go-lucky appearance in the life he has been thrust into.
