My Sister's Keeper(2009) - English

Well, this is purely a realistic drama in which emotions and sentiments dominate. It is centered on two sisters Anna and Kate. Anna is a girl conceived in vitro as a genetic match for her sister Kate who is suffering from leukemia. She was regularly used as a source of blood, bone marrow etc for Kate from birth onwards. When she is 15, Anna finds it bad to be brought up like a medical instrument and she seeks the help of an attorney to claim medical emancipation from her parents. Then follows a series of arguments and counter arguments between the attorney and Anna's parents. The way Kate approaches her death, how her illness affects the people around, her relations to them etc are picturized in an attractive manner. If you don't hate sentiments, try this movie. It is worth your time.
