Her suicide attempt fails and she emerges from her coma at a psychiatric institution directed by the unorthodox Dr. Blake. She is informed that her overdose caused irreparable heart damage and that she only has a couple of weeks to live. As the days pass, Veronika falls in love with schizophrenic patient Edward. With little left to lose, Veronika embarks on a journey in which she frees herself to experience relationships and feelings of love and hate, and ultimately discovers what it means to live.
