Synopsis

At 24, Kit was diagnosed with an incurable brain tumour, his dad Lawrence, still struggling to come to terms with his own dramatic family secret, throws himself into a series of obscure diversion tactics. From growing cannabis in his spare room, to relinquishing his lifelong atheism and secretly attending a local synagogue; he begins to transform his identity for good. His mum - with whom Kit has a strained relationship - is a community nurse who spends her time caring for dying patients but can’t cope with the idea of living through the death of her son. She must find a way to reconnect with him before time runs out.
