Alone in a hospital room, one teenager stares at a diagnosis of cancer through a camera lens. This documentary is what stared back. When Jacob is diagnosed with cancer that requires him to have a bone marrow transplant and isolate in a hospital room for six weeks, he has a choice to make: he can let his own anxiety and loneliness eat him up inside, or he can try and create something out of this experience. Seeing as how cancer is already trying to eat him, he decides to make a film - this film. Exploring friendship, loneliness, fear, banality and the unexpected humour in the situation, this is an honest and surprising documentary that poses the question: how does adversity affect creativity? It blends documentary elements. The film reflects a distinct United Kingdom style and perspective. The story is brought to life by director Jacob Joseph Held. With a runtime of 17 minutes, it offers a concise viewing experience.
