A romantic comedy set in the most unlikely of places - the oncology department.
The series follows the relationship, little fights and squabbles of a young couple that might seem odd when compared to the more pressing battle for their lives.
Eran is a recently diagnosed and downtrodden single man while Michal is a longtime cancer survivor, a woman who lives aloud and devours life.
They unexpectedly meet at the cancer ward while battling their diagnosis in very different ways. Their unique connection sparks the first steps in a journey that runs the full gamut of emotions – from moments of great happiness to frightening lows, but mostly full of love and optimism.
Inspired by the life story of its creator, Eyal Eltawil, a stand-up comedian, lecturer, and author of the novel "The Cancer is Dying of Laughter".
