Refusing to die in the hospital, an old man gets on his scooter and heads to the mountain where, as a child, his grandfather used to take him to look for fossils. Reluctantly, his son sets off in pursuit.

The film follows an emotionally harrowing journey endured by young gay photographer Alex, after he is diagnosed with peritoneal cancer. Abandoned by his brother and his on-again, off-again lover, Alex is forced to face his mortality and the loss of his sexual identity through sheer resilience. A devastating, but ultimately hopeful story of survival and resolve.
