Judith Vanistendael – författare

Nominated for the prestigious Angoulême Festival Grand Prix, Vanistendael creates comics 'about life as it really is'.A beautiful, unexpected story, told from the heart, which reaches far beyond the love story that originally inspired it.

The doctor's verdict is final: David has cancer. There is still a possibility of remission, but it is very small. And if the tumour kills him, David won't have a chance to see his baby granddaughter Louise grow up. We see his wife become progressively consumed by the looming shadow of death, in Vanistendael's sensitive portrayal of a family battling cancer.
