A Scottish comic book author with a brain tumour is creating a graphic novel to help his loved ones prepare for his death. With his tumour’s growth accelerating, the global pandemic forces him into isolation and traps his long-distance partner in the States. This film explores how art, humour and love can combat our fears of mortality when we are faced with the reminder that the clock is ticking.
