Stella Grant is every bit a seventeen-year-old…she’s attached to her laptop and loves her best friends. But unlike most teenagers, she spends much of her time living in a hospital as a cystic fibrosis patient. Her life is full of routines, boundaries and self-control - all of which is put to the test when she meets an impossibly charming fellow CF patient named Will Newman. There’s an instant flirtation, though restrictions dictate that they must maintain a safe distance between them. As their connection intensifies, so does the temptation to throw the rules out the window and embrace that attraction. Further complicating matters is Will's potentially dangerous rebellion against his ongoing medical treatment. Stella gradually inspires Will to live life to the fullest, but can she ultimately save the person she loves when even a single touch is off limits? (Lionsgate US)

I was quite bothered by the crude attempt to wring as many tears and emotions out of the audience as possible, but in the end I couldn't help being moved. The casting of the central duo with unglamorous acting faces was a very good choice: the chemistry between the likeable Haley Lu Richardson and the charming Cole Sprouse simply worked well. Plus, I really believed that they were in love. And the romantic-toned soundtrack was also a success. (70%)

Soundtrack Review: We know Brian Tyler’s work mostly because of his iconic scores for blockbusters such is the series of The Avengers films, Fast & Furious series and other action epic films. It was very surprising to see his credits in a teenage drama film, and even more interesting to listen to how his unexpected collaboration with a quite unknown Breton Vivian turned out. Together, Brian and Breton managed to create a beautiful touching soundtrack full of incredible melodies performed by diverse instruments. From old school sounds and retro pads, to modern guitar supplemented by a nice clean soft piano. The soundtrack in this film just does what it is supposed to. It greatly emphasizes the emotions which we can feel through the film. It’s a sad story with some beautiful moments and a touch of love.
