Bob Jones ist nicht nur ein erfolgreicher Werbeunternehmer, er wird in wenigen Monaten auch zum ersten Mal Vater. Doch als sein Arzt ihm mitteilt, dass er unheilbar an Krebs erkrankt ist und nur noch kurze Zeit zu leben hat, wird Bob bewusst, dass er seinen Sohn wahrscheinlich nie kennenlernen wird. Er beginnt ein Homevideo für das ungeborene Kind zu drehen. Durch den konzentrierten Blick auf sein bisheriges Leben und seine unterdrückten Gefühle, erlangt Bob völlig neue Erkenntnisse über sich selbst...

Michael Keaton stars as Bob Jones, who has just been informed that his wife Gail is pregnant with their first child. However, he has also been told he has kidney cancer that has spread to his lungs; the longest Bob is expected to live is four months, which will deny him the joy of witnessing the birth of his child. Raging within, he visits a Chinese healer, Mr. Ho, who encourages him to let go of all the anger and fear he has kept trapped inside himself. Bob proceeds to videotape himself, on the advice of Mr. Ho, where Bob will talk to his unborn child and discuss what he has learned in life. In the process of the videotape sessions, Bob discovers that his anger resides in his past with his family, and Bob reveals secrets that he has kept hidden from himself and his wife through the years.
