,,While they fight for the audience's votes, I fight a diagnosis that has neither a name nor mercy.'
Judith was supposed to have an ordinary childhood in Sheffield, England. One sunny day at nursery, however, changed everything. Waking from a coma was only the beginning of a battle with an unknown illness that took away her ability to walk and eat, but could not take away her dreams.
When doctors deliver a cruel verdict-a maximum of 15 and a half years of life-her brother Travis decides on a desperate move. He enters the talent show X Factor to secure the best treatment and a barrier-free home for Judith.
While Travis shines under the spotlights as a new star, Judith wages her invisible battle in hospital corridors. But Judith hides a secret. Beneath the layers of medication and rehabilitation, something more than just a patient is being born. She becomes "Lili"-a voice conquering the silver screen and a songwriter whose songs are her only oxygen.
In the shadow of fame, however, hides Marcus-a manager who sees the sick girl only as a "gold mine." Can Judith and her family escape the golden cage of show business before her body runs out of time?
A fictional story about siblings love, about finding a voice in the silence of the hospital, and about the fact that even if they tell you that you won't survive the storm, you can still learn to sing in it.
