Just when he thinks things couldn't get worse, Daniel (Rupert Grint), a compulsive liar stuck in a failing relationship and a dead-end job, is diagnosed with esophageal cancer.

Things start to look up, however, when everyone starts to treat him better after his diagnosis, and he finds his zeal for life renewed.

Unfortunately, he's got the most incompetent oncologist in the world Dr. Iain Glennis (Nick Frost) and finds out his cancer was misdiagnosed. Now he's faced with the moral dilemma of coming clean and returning to his mundane and tiresome existence or milking the original diagnosis for all it's worth which includes coercing his doctor into collaborating the lie.
