General:	This Dogme-style film about illness features brilliant performances from its young cast, and the kind of crazy humour only the seriously sick can get away with. "Authenticity is, as in all British film, the highest priority. This is achieved by means of a free camera and brilliant acting by the ensemble of talented young actors (Paul Williams once suffered from Hodgkins' Disease, giving an added dimension to his portrayal)." (Jerusalem Film Festival).
Synopsis:	Todd has diabetes and an attitude problem. When Todd goes on one bender too many, his friend Kirby whisks him off to the country to recuperate. Disaster looms as Todd turns to Kirby's girlfriend Anna for comfort.
