HAZEL GRACE LANCASTER (16), a cancer survivor, visits the doctor’s office with her mother, FRANNIE (early 40s), who believes Hazel is depressed. Hazel can’t help that she enjoys re-reading her favorite novel, “An Imperial Affliction” and watching “America’s Top Model.” The doctor's solution to Hazel’s depression is for her to join a support group with people suffering from similar illnesses. Frannie and her husband, MICHAEL (40s), want Hazel to make friends and be like other teens, but Hazel feels differently, so she joins the support group.
At the church, Hazel bumps into a BEAUTIFUL BOY who immediately captures her attention, but she avoids him until she finds him in the group. The beautiful boy, AUGUSTUS “GUS” WATERS (17), a fellow cancer survivor with a prosthetic leg, is there to support his friend, ISAAC (17), who is bound for eye surgery and will lose his sight. Afterwards, Hazel catches Isaac kissing his girlfriend, MONICA (17), when Gus approaches and starts a conversation before inviting her to a movie. She accepts. Arriving at his home, Hazel meets Gus’s MOTHER and FATHER (40s) before she’s taken to his bedroom. They talk about their interests; Hazel suggests her favorite book for Gus...
