Wit starring Emma Thompson

Emma Thompson stars in this dramatic adaptation of Margaret Edson's Pulitzer Prize-winning play about a woman with ovarian cancer.
Vivian Bearing (Thompson) is a disciplined, esteemed, rather tough English professor dealing with a sensitive issue - her health. After being diagnosed with advanced ovarian cancer, Vivian is forced to reassess her life and decide what's really important. WIT also tells the stories of the people Vivian touches, including her healthcare team.

Vivian’s oncologist, Dr. Kelekian (Christopher Lloyd),
