o76. Watch 5 films in the cinema [ My Sister's Keeper ]


Hello guys. Yesterday I went to the cinema with my mother. We went to see My Sister's Keeper. I usually aren't that quickly moved, but dear god, the film was heartwarming and unbelievably sad.

It's about Anna who was born to donate organs and blood to her sister Kate, who suffers from leukemia. When Kate turns 15, she goes into renal failure. Knowing that she will have to donate one of her kidneys to her sister, Anna sues her parents for medical emancipation and the rights to her own body. The film revolves about the family and is shot from several points of view. Kate and Anna's mother Sara is determined to save Kate's life and just can't let go. Anna and Jesse, their brother, don't get any attention for all the attention is focused on Kate. It also shows fragments of Kate's childhood and her first love.
I just really couldn't repress my tears at all. They were flowing in abundance and every time I ceased, something else would cause me to cry again. When the film was over, the whole audience walked away in silence, still sniffing and drying their tears. I highly recommend My Sister's Keeper. The subject is terribly cliché, but it's so heartwarming and refreshing, you'll just adore it. I certainly know what a tearjerker is now.
