Summary:

A 15 year-old boy goes on a mission to determine if what Dr. Max Gerson wrote in his controversial book is a legitimate alternative cure for cancer. After numerous interviews with doctors, skeptics, members of Gerson's family, and cancer patients, it became abundantly clear that a cure for virtually all cancers and chronic diseases does exist, and it has existed for over 80 years.
