The documentary chronicles McMahon on a rollercoaster year, through the highs of recording and releasing a solo album and the lows of being diagnosed with leukemia and breaking up with his girlfriend.

On May 27, 2005, McMahon was forced to cancel all of his upcoming concerts [1] after a medical examination in connection with a relentless case of laryngitis forced him into being admitted into a hospital in New York City.

On June 1, 2005, he was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, the same day he finished recording his debut album under the Jack's Mannequin moniker, Everything in Transit.

[2] Since the illness was diagnosed in its early stages, McMahon's doctors had high hopes for a full recovery.

The film follows him from diagnoses to recovery, including the stem cell transplant that saved his life and the first show he performed after being well again.
