The film follows IllGirl Madeline, who suffers from severe combined immunodeficiency, making her susceptible to even the most mundane of illnesses, thus confining her to a hermetically sealed house. One day, a new family moves in next door, which results in a budding romance Madeline and Olly, the son of the household.

* IllGirl: Madeline, who can't even leave her house because she could die.[[spoiler:It turns out that Madeline isn't actually sick and can, in fact, go outside.]]

* OutlivingOnesOffspring: Pauline's husband and son died in a car accident when Madeline was a baby. [[spoiler:Pauline consequently convinces herself that Madeline is sick as to not lose her.]]

* RaceLift: Madeline is played by the half-white half-black Amandla Stenberg. Although, her character is implied to be half-black half-Asian like her book counterpart. Although, Pauline is black in the film and Japanese in the book, while the father appears to be Asian from a photograph, unlike the novel in which he was black.

* AdultFear:
** Pauline's husband and son died in a car accident when Madeline was a baby. [[spoiler:Pauline consequently convinces herself that Madeline is sick as to not lose her.]]

* MixedRace: In the movie-version, Madeline's mother is black and her father, via a photograph, appears to be Asian.

* AlohaHawaii: Olly and Maddy back their bags and take a vacation to Hawaii, which includes several scenes of them on the beach and in the ocean.

* RealityEnsues: It's more or less common knowledge that doctors aren't supposed to practice on their own families. Madeline's mother is her doctor, but mostly, we can let that slide due to WillingSuspensionOfDisbelief... [[spoiler:until we find out Madeline's mom was lying about Madeline being sick the ''whole time'', ignoring other, impartial doctors who told her that Madeline was fine. Of course, most people wouldn't go ''that'' far, but that kind of severe lapse in judgement and desperation to keep someone alive, no matter what the cost, is precisely why doctors ''should not practice on their families''. Lampshaded by the doctor who tells Madeline the truth, who comments that Madeline should get a second option from a doctor that ''isn't'' related to her.]]
