“Me Before You” is a romantic drama film based on the 2012 novel of the same name by Jojo Moyes.
Louisa loses her job at a local café and is forced to find new employment. She becomes a caregiver for Will Traynor, who is now confined to a wheelchair and has a grim outlook on life. Louisa’s vibrant personality contrasts sharply with Will’s negative attitude.

Will reveals to Louisa that he plans to end his own life at a Swiss euthanasia clinic, as he feels that his quality of life is no longer worth living. He wants to have control over his own death rather than continuing to live with the physical and emotional challenges of his condition.
Will proceeds with his plan to end his life, and Louisa is left to come to terms with the outcome. The film ends on a poignant note, with Louisa reflecting on her experiences and the transformative effect of her time with Will.
