Chasing Rainbows: Young Adults Living With Cancer

This upbeat documentary film “Chasing Rainbows - Young Adults Living
With Cancer”, is a dynamic, intimate portrayal of six young people who
are “living life while fighting for it.” With passion and infectious
laughter, the six participants provide a unique and refreshing
perspective about what it is like to live with cancer when you are
young.

Candidly they discuss: Fear, Anger, Finances, Sex, Infertility, Family
Relationships, Death, Faith, and the Future. Their stories provide
invaluable information, inspiration and hope - not only for other young
adults facing life-threatening illness, but also their families,
friends, caregivers and medical support teams.

“I could relate only too well to the ever-shifting phases of fear,
anger, hope and sadness...I felt as though I was at a support group
meeting, nodding along with the survivors in the film - people who
truly get it.”

Karin DuBois, 25 year old cancer survivor

 

Chasing Rainbows: Young Adults Living With Cancer  is directed and co-produced by Pat Taylor on behalf of her daughter Sara Taylor Gibson, and features animation by Derek Cummings, evocative original songs by Michael Booth Palmer (who also co-produced) and underscoring by Edward Henderson.
