Plot – The doctor was very clear: Sonny Lawson has maximum of one year left to live. However, no one seems interested in him: his divorced wife avoids him, his new girlfriend is distracted like his old parents, even the priest is not very sensitive. So after an unsuccessful suicide attempt, Sonny instructs a psychopath to kill him. He then changes his mind, but it is too late to escape the attacks of the killer.
