Breathing and blinking is the only thing that ALS patients can do in the last stage of the disease. The whole body is paralyzed and the mind remains fettered in its own body. This is an unexplored disease. It is not inherited and cannot be predicted or prevented. Patients with this diagnosis are given 3-4 years of life, but there are those who live for 20 years or more. The film has two characters, two families. The Valkov family found out about the diagnosis a year ago and are just starting to live with it, and the Shestimerovs have been living with this diagnosis for 20 years. Two parallel histories help to trace the development of the disease from a physical and psychological point of view. From disbelief to complete acceptance and gratitude. The film shows the value and importance of life in every moment.
