• A grungy, edgy Rockstar famous since he was 12 and a young model, innocent in her ways and just coming into her own. • They didn't have much in common; except for fame…and the inability to properly breathe. • While Olympia's father does everything to keep her cystic fibrosis under control, his healthy ways won't give her immortality. Meanwhile, Michael has chosen to live life like a fast burning torch; since he'll be dead soon either way. • Will Michael's flamethrower ways destroy Olympia, or will her slow burning candle save him before it's too late? • Olympia's family disapproves of the troublesome Rockstar, and his band mates dislike the innocent almost-child that is always around. • Their tender romance is found in breathless moments of understanding; of silent gazes and knowing looks. • About finding beauty even in pain; even when your partner looks their worst. • When Michael receives bad news, it tests their romance at new heights. • "Unable to Breathe" is a story about love despite the difficulties; about the little things that bring you together even if you are worlds apart. About transcending lifestyle, religion, professions; all differences; to be with the one you love. • Is it truly till death do us part, or is there something after that can be shared?
