Senior breast surgeon Amalia Levy detects a suspicious mass in her own breast minutes before her consult with Member of Knesset Micah Haddad, the new chairman of the political party Horizon for Israel who is in the midst of an election campaign. Micah is shocked to hear that he has breast cancer, Amalia's aloof delivery doesn't help soften the blow, and decided to keep it a secret from his family and colleagues. Amalia tries to weigh her own options with her usual stern composure, but things spiral out of control as everyone in her close-knit family has an opinion on the matter. Meanwhile, in a last-ditch attempt to salvage her failing stand-up comedy career, Amalia's sister Adi appropriates Amalia's ordeal and appears on stage pretending to have just received a cancer diagnosis.
Amalia performs surgery on Micah, who continues to hide his condition from the public and his daughters. But when rumors of marital strife are about to break, he makes the brave decision to come forward and reveal he is a man who has "girl cancer". Meanwhile, Adi's comedy act, in which she fakes being a cancer patient, gains surprising success, and Amalia's teenage daughter, Ella, finds out she's pregnant. Despite being a surgeon accustomed to making life-or-death decisions for others, Amalia struggles with her own treatment, repeatedly rescheduling her operation. Finally, her family confronts her, with her ex-husband Amir providing the clearest perspective, nudging her towards a decision that would not only impact her life but the lives of those she holds dear.
