Synopsis 
Sam is 11 years old and he is fascinated by all sorts of information . He loves collecting stories and amazing facts. He wants to know about UFO's, scary movies, spaceships and ghosts. He also wants to find out what it feels like to try his first beer, to have his first 'drag' of a cigarette ...to kiss a girl for the first time.

Sam wants to find out what teenagers feel, because he'll never become one . He suffers from Leukemia .

The adults around him respond to his questions ambiguously trying to avoid certain topics but Sam wants to find out as much information and details about death as possible .

He is determined to find the answers to the questions that nobody wants to answer.

That 's why he decides to write a book . A book that is not only a diary for himself, but also a " scientific experimentation" (with observations included), a list of proven data , of things he wants to do one day (such as breaking a world record, flying in an airship or watching scary horror films), as well as thoughts on his questions.

Sam will take us through his personal, moving, and at times, funny vision of the world and his own circumstance hand-in-hand with his parents, his sister Ella, and not least his friend Felix, with whom he'll experience unforgettable moments. Sam finds his voice as an exceptional person transformed by the immensity of what awaits him.
