Lulu, Louise Nutter, is a PHD Oncologist who has control of 50% of the NIH funding for cancer. She's a tenured professor and for over 20 years has devoted her life to finding a cure for breast cancer.
Her very close friend Casper Wong swings by on her way to a wedding in California as Lulu is about to receive a diagnosis on a biopsy done on her breast. She insists that Casper film the phone call. This is the beginning of her battle against the disease she has spent her life fighting.
She has just finished inventing a new therapy which received a patent in 2010. Casper follows her during the remaining months of her life. The most painful part of the story is how their relationship, which has been on again off again over the years, deepens through dealing with the issues of the disease. But this film can be hilariously funny as well and, in the end, is genuinely touching.
