Movie: My Sister's Keeper
One of the most emotional and inspiring movies- My Sister’s
Keeper brought tears rolling down my cheeks. Living in a dysfunctional family,
where maintaining Kate’s life brought the greatest plight faced by the Fitzgerald
family.
Kate suffers from a autoimmune deficiency – an acute acute
promyelocytic leukemia. In order to save her, Anna is designed under a pre-implantation
genetic diagnosis to be a spare part for Kate, donating lymphocytes, bone
marrow and anything that Kate’s body needs.
Sara and Brian, Kate’s
protective parents undergo a transformation of their lives when they decide to
have Anna. The quality of family lives changes with their kids, Kate, Jesse and
Anna facing challenges in their part of their lives and the struggle to
maintain happiness within this family. Sara resigned to spend 100% of her time to make Kate’s life healthy, germ-free environment and everyday organic food.
The process of taking care of Kate undermines Jesse, who is dyslexic. Most
importantly, Anna who underwent 8 hospitalisations in 11 years, multiple catheterizations,
bone marrow aspiration and stem cell purges. Brian who believes that as
parents, they pushed Anna too far and she doesn’t deserves such treatment in
her life. Al those rewards and encouragement to drive Anna to help her sister
were never ethical.
At 11, Anna is indignant and decides to sue her parents when
she was required to donate her kidney to Kate, who suffers from renal failure.
It was a comeuppance in which Brian deemed. The foundation of happiness starts to crack as
more truths are unfolded in the family. The case is being brought to court to
deal with this complex issue. They talked about the sanity of having a donor
child, the process of saving Kate and in the end everyone seems as confused as
Anna. They could not come up with a real answer and they never will understand
the pain faced by Anna in making this turning point decision.
This family theme movie based on the novel with the same name
written by Jodi Picoult introduces a high-concept of the struggle faced by the Fitzgeralds.
This is where the crossroad of family wounds and medical healing intersect and
baffle a child. This movie brings a strong compelling premise that will sure
bring tears to viewers. I personally felt gratuitous after watching and the
strong performance of the actors portraying the plight of the family dwell
within it breaks the fourth wall to touch me. This awe
inspiring movie coupled with moving songs such as “Feel Like Home” by Edwina
Hayes and “Find My Way Back Home”: by Priscilla Ahn makes it a
masterpiece.
