Chuma Blake, a 17-year-old with only a year left to live, sends a letter to a random address, seeking connection. It reaches Jabu Bande, an 18-year-old outcast in a small town, where everyone seems to hate him.
As they exchange letters, they form a deep bond, sharing fears, dreams, and struggles. Chuma finds solace in Jabu's honesty, while Jabu discovers purpose in Chuma's courage.
Over the next year, they write to each other, confronting mortality and harsh realities. Their bond grows stronger, but time is running out. Will they meet in person before Chuma's time runs out, or will their letters be their only connection?
