| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
Sara and Brian Fitzgerald’s life with their young son
and their two-year-old daughter, Kate, is forever altered
when they learn that Kate has leukemia. The parents’
only hope is to conceive another child, specifically intended
to save Kate’s life. For some, such genetic engineering
would raise both moral and ethical questions; for the Fitzgeralds,
Sara in particular, there is no choice but to do whatever
it takes to keep Kate alive. And what it takes is Anna.
Kate (Sofia Vassilieva) and Anna (Abigail Breslin) share
a bond closer than most sisters: though Kate is older, she
relies on her little sister—in fact, her life depends
on Anna.
Throughout their young lives, the sisters endure various
medical procedures and hospital stays—just another part
of their close-knit family’s otherwise normal life.
Sara (Cameron Diaz), a loving wife and mother who left her
career as an attorney to care for her daughter, is sometimes
lost inside the single-minded caregiver she has become in
her efforts to save Kate. Her strong, supportive husband,
Brian (Jason Patric), is often rendered powerless and passive
by his wife’s strength and determination. And their
only son, Jesse (Evan Ellingson), drifts, at times all but
forgotten as Kate and Anna take center stage.
Until Anna, now 11, says no. Seeking medical emancipation,
she hires her own lawyer (Alec Baldwin), initiating a court
case that divides the family...and that could leave Kate’s
rapidly failing body in the hands of fate.
Based on the bestselling book from Jodi Picoult, “My
Sister’s Keeper” reveals surprising truths that
challenge one’s perceptions of family love and loyalty
and give new meaning to the definition of healing.
