Me Before You (2016)

Plot Summary (6)

A girl in a small town forms an unlikely bond with a recently-

paralyzed man she's taking care of.

Lou Clark knows lots of things. She knows how many

footsteps there are between the bus stop and home. She
knows she likes working in The Buttered Bun tea shop and
she knows she might not love her boyfriend Patrick. What
Lou doesn't know is she's about to lose her job or that
knowing what's coming is what keeps her sane. Will Traynor
knows a road accident took away his desire to live. He
knows everything feels very small and rather joyless now and
he knows exactly how he's going to put a stop to that. What
Will doesn't know is that Lou is about to burst into his world
in a riot of color. And neither of them knows they're going to
change each other for all time.

The twenty-six year-old waitress of a cafe Louisa "Lou" Clark

is a charming woman that lives with her parents Bernard and
Josie Clark, her sister Katrina "Treena" Clark and her
grandfather in a small town in the United Kingdom. Lou
supports the whole family since Bernard is unemployed and
Treena is a student. When she loses her job, she applies to
the position of caregiver of the wealthy banker Will Traynor,
who was hit by a motorcycle two years ago and became
tetraplegic. Will's mother Camilla Traynor, supported by her
husband Stephen Traynor, hires the inexperienced but happy
Lou to take care of her son together with his nurse Nathan.
When Lou meets Will, she finds a bitter, cynical and
depressed young man that had lost the will to live. Further,
she learns that the handsome Will was a successful athlete
and banker. Will she lift his spirit?

Since a motorbike crushed into him, silver spoon William

'Wild Will' Traynor's glamour life as corporate raider turned
into a nightmare of near-paralyzed wheelchair agony and
bitter solitude. His rich but desperate parents, owners of
British town's grand manor and medieval castle, hired
perfect male nurse Nathan for all able medical assistance but
are up to their fifth audition for a well-paid job as permanent
companion. The only eligible candidate this time is airhead
local Lou Clark, daughter of an unemployed laborer, who
never holds a job more then a few days. This time however
she neglects her jealous-made fiance Patrick, the jock local
award gym entrepreneur, trying anything to bond with Will,
who slowly starts caring for her company enough to live
again, even publicly and abroad, and introduce her to
society. However his incurable condition, extremely
vulnerable to any infection, still dictates his determination to
get legal euthanasia in Switzerland after the six months
ample consideration he promised his parents.
