When Life Keeps You Apart, Fight For Every Inch.

Stella Grant (Haley Lu Richardson) is every bit a seventeen-year-old shes attached to her laptop and loves her best friends. But unlike most teenagers, she spends much of her time living in a hospital as a cystic fibrosis patient. Her life is full of routines, boundaries, and self-control all of which is put to the test when she meets an impossibly charming fellow patient named Will Newman (Cole Sprouse). There's an instant flirtation, though restrictions dictate that they must maintain a safe distance between them. As their connection intensifies, so does the temptation to throw the rules out the window and embrace that attraction. Further complicating matters is Wills potentially dangerous rebellion against his ongoing medical treatment. Stella gradually inspires Will to live life to the fullest, but can she ultimately save the person she loves when even a single touch is off limits?

Critics Reviews for Five Feet Apart:

• “It's the best tear-jerker in a long time; one box of tissues might not be enough. On a deeper level, it earns some of that emotion through a story based on a real dilemma.” – Paul Byrnes, Sydney Morning Herald
• “Due credit… should be given to Sprouse and particularly Richardson for selling all of these reheated tropes to their full potential.” – Emily Yoshida, New York Magazine/Vulture
• That doesn't dampen the work of Richardson and Sprouse, or the romance at the film's center. “Five Feet Apart” works hard for its tears. But it's the honesty of the performances that makes it worth the investment." – Adam Graham, Detroit News
