This feature-length documentary introduces 11 Kiwi cancer survivors. Their differing approaches to dealing with the illness have a recurring theme — the power of the mind. The interviewees share their experiences of alternate medications and treatments that they found helpful. These include meditation, Chinese and herbal medicines, organic food diets, naturopathy, and shifting mindsets. Spirituality also plays a huge role for some of the interviewees. Morehu Te Maro says "It's a spiritual strength you need to grab hold of. Because in a lot of cases that's all you need, that's all you got left."
