Overview
At 47, Jonathan Brewster is leading a successful life until he wakes up at dawn bursting for the toilet, urinates blood, and ends up waiting eight hours in the ER before he sees a doctor. Urologist Mohamed Khadra meets Brewster as the patient enters a maze of diagnosis and treatment for what turns out to be bladder cancer. For Dr. Khadra, Jonathan goes from being just another patient—albeit a young one to be suffering from this particular disease—to something much more after Khadra experiences his own health crisis. In being confronted with their own mortality, both Jonathan and Dr. Khadra develop a heightened awareness of the lives they have lived.
