Quick Synopsis
Seventeen-year-old Stella is a cystic fibrosis patient who spends much of her time in the hospital, following strict routines and maintaining careful boundaries to manage her illness. Her controlled life begins to change when she meets Will, another teenager with cystic fibrosis, during her hospital stay. They quickly develop a mutual attraction, but because of their condition, they must keep a safe physical distance to avoid cross-infection. As their relationship grows stronger, they struggle with the challenge of following medical rules while wanting to be closer to each other.
Detailed Synopsis of Five Feet Apart
Seventeen-year-old Stella spends most of her time in the hospital as a cystic fibrosis patient. Her life is full of routines, boundaries and self-control — all of which get put to the test when she meets Will, an impossibly charming teen who has the same illness. There's an instant flirtation, though restrictions dictate that they must maintain a safe distance between them. As their connection intensifies, so does the temptation to throw the rules out the window and embrace that attraction.
