What if our lives are more connected than we think?
Approaching forty, Sophie is dealt a double blow. Already facing a life-altering diagnosis—cancer, a ticking time bomb that allows her only a year left to live—her decade-long marriage abruptly ends.
Just as the prospect of navigating her journey alone and the grip of despair seems to take hold, fate intervenes unexpectedly. In what is slated to be her last chemotherapy session, Sophie crosses paths with Lily, a vivacious young girl with an equally grim prognosis.
Together, they forge the most unlikely of friendships and find themselves on a life-changing journey. Their mission: to locate the man who might serve as the saviour Lily desperately needs.
One Year is a touching story that celebrates the power of friendship, hope and the extraordinary capacity of the human heart to find joy and meaning even in the most challenging circumstances.
