So Much So Fast

Oscar-nominated directors Steven Ascher and Jeanne Jordan present "So Much So Fast" (2006), a moving, black-humored cliffhanger documentary that deals with romance, guerilla science and the meaning of time. When 29-year-old Stephen Heywood is diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's disease (A.L.S.) and given only years to live, his brother becomes obsessed with finding a cure and forms an amateur medical-research facility. Daily task become profoundly meaningful in a film about a man counting the days he has left tolive.
