Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Based on a true story, the film follows Clara, a math teacher who finds success online as an educational influencer. Good-natured, sarcastic, and sometimes mocking, she likes to keep everything under control—however, she must navigate vulnerability when she discovers she has breast cancer. With courage and resilience, Clara faces both bad days and better ones alongside her teenage daughter, mother, and loyal friends. On this journey of healing, she has the chance to celebrate life and redefine her relationships.
