David (played by Tim Roth) is a nurse who specializes in caring for critically ill patients. He feeds them, bathes them, helps them with their bodily functions, and does things that even their closest relatives would hesitate to do. He is a quiet yet dedicated person, providing meticulous care for his patients. He feels profound sadness when a patient passes away. After attending a patient’s funeral, he must begin the search for a new patient, establishing a bond that is destined to end in tragedy. To alleviate his mental stress, he runs every day. One of the patients David cares for, Marta, is suffering from advanced cancer and is in need of chemotherapy. Initially, she is wary of David, but later, she learns from a friend that David once had a son who died of terminal cancer, which leads her to trust him completely. When Marta can no longer endure the severe side effects of chemotherapy, she asks David to help her die peacefully. David initially refuses her request, but after much hesitation, he changes his mind and helps her fulfill this wish.
