A few hours beyond time, spent with people suffering from cancer at the Chemotherapy Hospital Ward. People of different ages and from different worlds meet there, because cancer is a democratic disease. They talk about various things, sometimes trivial and sometimes important. There is an interpersonal "chemistry" between them. A film about the need for such a dialogue.
