A Revolution Is Coming. Cancer
Description
More than a third of us will get cancer in our lifetime and a quarter of us will die from it; it is Canada's number one killer. Extensive research, guided by experts and improved technologies, has significantly increased our understanding of cancer and how it works over the past ten years. This film looks at the principal theories and hypotheses that are revolutionizing our knowledge of this disease. We meet Guy, Agathe, Claude and Denis, four patients suffering from various forms of cancer who confront their illness, a complex and insidious scourge that is increasingly being treated with revolutionary therapies.
