Way Out Ahead of Us

A father keeps his terminal illness a secret from his daughter so he doesn't spoil her plans to move to the city. The man who plays the father has this illness in real life. He and his wife, who plays the mother, have been married for 25 years and have raised each other's kids from previous relationships together, but have never had a child of their own - so in the film we cast an actress to play the daughter they never had, but always dreamed of.
