My Life Without Me

DramaRomance106 min

Ann is a young wife and mother who learns she has only two months to live, and decides to keep the diagnosis from her family while she makes a private list of what still needs doing. Sarah Polley is Ann, moving through everyday routines with her husband Don and their two daughters even as she begins recording messages, settling old tensions, and testing the edges of a life that suddenly feels finite. Scott Speedman's Don remains outside the secret, while Mark Ruffalo enters as a lonely stranger Ann meets away from home, complicating the careful order she’s trying to impose on what time she has left.
