Movie Monday at library features My Sister’s Keeper

How much can parents ask of a younger sister whose older sibling has leukemia? That question is at the heart of My Sister’s Keeper, the Asheboro Public Library’s Movie Monday at 2 p.m. February 22.

After their daughter is stricken with leukemia, a couple conceives another child who can provide a donor match. The family is torn apart when, after countless surgeries, transfusions and shots so that her older sister can fight the disease, the healthy younger sibling sues her parents for the right to decide how her body is used.

Based on the novel by Jodi Picoult, the film stars Cameron Diaz, Alec Baldwin and Abigail Breslin.

The movie is free and the public is invited; refreshments will be served. Find our more here, or call 318-6801.
