What the documentary is about
The film follows director David Wilkinson through cancer treatment and examines bowel cancer, including the challenges faced by people who may be considered too young for screening or whose concerns may not be taken seriously. The cinema describes its focus as people “too young to be screened, and too young to be believed.” That is promotional framing for the film, not medical guidance about screening eligibility or symptoms.
