Description
When veteran filmmaker Mary Katzke was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1992, her only experience with the disease was watching her mother die from it nine years earlier. She searched in vain for a film which would show long term survivors who honestly portrayed their experiences with the disease. She made a commitment that if she made her five-year anniversary, she would create the film she so desperately needed at the time.
Through the voices and faces of a wide cross-section of women of all ages, ethnic and economic backgrounds, we hear the inside story of facing treatment and recovering from a disease we all believed would lead to our demise. It is a very personal, intimate, and candid film which is finding a surprising number of additional and unexpected venues, from use as a sensitivity training tool for surgeons to a gift of hope for husbands and families.
