English Summary:
Ann (Sarah Polley) is a hard-working 23-year-old mother with two small daughters, an unemployed husband (Scott Speedman), a mother (Deborah Harry) who sees her life as a failure, and a jailed father whom she has not seen for ten years. Her life changes dramatically when, during a medical checkup following a collapse, she is diagnosed with metastatic ovarian cancer and told that she has only two months to live.
Deciding not to tell anyone of her condition and using the cover of anemia, Ann makes a list of things to do before she dies.[3] She decides to change her hair, record birthday messages for the girls for every year until they're 18, and tries to set up her husband with another woman.
Feeling a longing to experience a life that was never available to her, she seeks out a man to experience how it feels to be in a sexual relationship with someone other than her husband. Her experiment ends up taking an emotional toll when she meets with a man named Lee, who ends up madly in love with her and is left heartbroken when Ann breaks it off with him. He meets with her one last time and says that he will do anything to make her happy, taking care of her daughters and even finding her husband a new job. She ends their relationship and never tells him that she is dying.
Hungarian Summary:
A 23 éves Ann életében nincs semmi rendkívüli. Az anyja házának kertjében, egy lakókocsiban él két kislányával és férjével, aki leginkább munkanélküli - és aki egyébként az egyetlen férfi, akit valaha is ismert. Hogy eltartsa a családot, éjszakánként takarítani jár. Egy napon rosszul lesz. A kórházban az orvos közli vele, hogy halálos beteg. A fiatal nő úgy dönt, hogy nem mond el semmit a családjának, és elkészít egy listát az utolsó tíz dologról, amelyet még meg kell tennie, mielőtt meghal: gyakrabban mondani a lányoknak, hogy mennyire szereti őket - naponta többször is; kazettákon rögzíteni a szülinapi üzeneteket nekik 18 éves korukig; meglátogatni az apját a börtönben; megismerni egy másik férfi ölelését.
