Hernan Barangan's intimate and cinematic documentary brings to light the hidden life of the modern day teenager who has been diagnosed with cancer. He explores their dreams, struggles and fears with a familiarity that only a fellow cancer survivor can bring. You see, when he as 15 - he was in their shoes. In an effort to exorcise his own cancer demons, Hernan takes to the road to find other people who have also been diagnosed with cancer in their youth. Cancer Rebellion tells the story of this quest, as it maps out the path that all young cancer patients travel from diagnosis to aftermath. This story is becoming all too common - in a country where one teen or young adult is diagnosed every 8 minutes. How long can we stand by as we lose our friends and children to this silent holocaust?
