Michael, a NYU grad student, meets Elizabeth, a depressed book-lover with a tumour slowly growing in her brain, in a small bookstore in Brooklyn. As like all clichés, they were reaching for the same book. He immediately takes an interest in her and invites her for coffee. She's willing to open up to him about some things, but immediately closes off when he tries to be romantic with her, fearing about her tumour. Little does he know that she has about ten months left. Will there be enough time for their love story to spark? Or will she be gone before it reaches its happy ending?
