Read MoreCollapse
Writer and director Nick Cassavetes' drama, based on the best-selling novel by Jodi Picoult, raises interesting ethical and legal questions. Eleven-year-old Anna Fitzgerald and her family tell, in flashbacks, the story of her older sister Kate's diagnosis of leukaemia and her mother Sara's and father Brian's decision to conceive a genetically engineered daughter for the express purpose of donating body parts to Kate. When Kate desperately needs a kidney, Anna decides that she doesn't want to donate hers and goes to the lengths of hiring a lawyer, Campbell Alexander, in her quest for medical emancipation from her family. Anna's decision sends shock waves through the family, with angry Sara eventually taking their fight to court.
