Plot
Dr. Stern, a psychologist, leads a well-ordered life. He gives his patients advice after listening carefully to them and assures them that everything will turn out for the best in the foreseeable future. Then he receives a call from his oncologist, who informs him that he only has a few weeks to live. Dr. Stern changes his treatment method. He no longer wants to relieve his patients of their problems in the foreseeable future, but immediately. He tries to do so with ruthless honesty.
