姐姐的守护者 My Sister's Keeper 电影分享会

为了让罹患血癌的凯特能够活下去，父母通过基因技术“制造”了与凯特的基因完美配型的小女儿——安娜。安娜感觉自己只是姐姐凯特的“药罐子”，11年来，凡是在凯特有需要的时候，无论是脐带血还是白血球、肝细胞、骨髓，她都得源源不断的向凯特提供。 然而，即使有孤注一掷的妈妈、无可奈何的爸爸，以及身边所有人的爱，凯特的情况还是越来越糟，肾功能的衰竭必须要年仅11岁的安娜捐献出自己的一个肾。这一次，安娜选择了拒绝， 并且寻找到律师把母亲告上法庭，她要捍卫自己的身体。然而，法庭上哥哥杰西却吐露了另一番真相……

Conceived by means of in vitro fertilization, Anna Fitzgerald was brought into the world to be a genetic match for her older sister, Kate , who suffers from acute promyelocytic leukemia, in order to keep her alive.When Kate turns 15, she goes into renal failure. Anna knows that she will be forced by her parents to donate a kidney. She also realizes that she may not be able to live the life she leads - she may be unable to cheer-lead, play soccer, or be a mother. Anna tells her parents that she does not want any of this, and proceeds to sue them for medical emancipation and the rights to her own body. Her overprotective mother, Sara , who leads an obsessive campaign to keep Kate alive is indignant at Anna's decision and even strikes her across the face when she receives the notice of intended prosecution. Attorney Campbell Alexander agrees to work for Anna as her guardian ad litem, suing for partial termination of parental rights. It is later learned he agreed to take the case not for the notoriety, but because he has epilepsy and understands her predicament of not having control over one's own body...
