『ハムナプトラ』シリーズのブレンダン・フレイザーがアカデミー賞(R)主演男優賞を受賞した感動のヒューマンドラマ。余命わずかな体重272キロの孤独な男が疎遠だった娘との関係修復を切望する最期の5日間を描く。――恋人アランを亡くしたショックに打ちひしがれ、現実逃避するように過食を繰り返してきたチャーリーは、大学のオンライン講座で生計を立てている40代の教師。歩行器なしでは移動もままならないチャーリーは頑なに入院を拒み、アランの妹で唯一の親友でもある看護師リズに頼っている。そんなある日、病状の悪化で自らの余命が幾ばくもないことを悟ったチャーリーは、別れて以来長らく音信不通だった17歳の娘エリーとの関係を修復しようと決意する。ところが家にやってきたエリーは、学校生活と家庭で多くのトラブルを抱え、心が荒みきっていた・・・。
