Adapted from Sally Nicholls’ novel, Ways to Live Forever is a touching and inspiring film about 12 year old Sam, played by Robbie Kay. Sam is the narrator of the film, through the medium of his video diary. He reveals much about himself, when while making a list of important things about himself, the fact that he is dying of leukaemia merits only 4th place. He loves facts, he wants to know about UFOs and horror movies and airships and ghosts and how it feels to kiss a girl. He wants to know the facts about dying.Sam needs answers to the questions nobody will answer.
Also starring Ben Chaplin, Emilia Fox and Greta Scacchi, Ways to Live Forever has been an official entry in the Amsterdam, Tallinn, Terra di Siena and Indianapolis Festivals.
