About

Lorenzo Odone, a Virginia 5-year-old, develops a degenerative nerve disease so rare that nobody is working on a cure, so his parents decide to immerse themselves in research and tackle the problem themselves.

When medical science offers no answers for a rare neurological decay, two parents transform their living room into a makeshift laboratory to fight for their son's life. This intense portrait of scientific obsession proves that desperate love can outpace professional expertise.
