My Life Without Me DVD

Life is what you make it.
And for 23 year old Ann, as much as she can make of the last few months of her life will be all that encapsulates her in the memories of a husband, two daughters, a lover, a mother and a best friend.

Compiling a list of all she has ever wanted to do with her life but has been too afraid or unwilling to do, a shock diagnosis unburdens Ann's spirit, letting her create the perfect "life without me" for those dear to her. She also feels free to indulge her heart and head's desires before the chance to do so disappears forever.

Featuring a dazzling cast and a justly acclaimed and Goya-nominated lead performance from Sarah Polley, Isabel Coixet's acclaimed film is a ravishing yet sincerely unsentimental portrait of the acceptance of fate and the difference one life can make, no matter how inconsequential that life may seem, or how brief that time is.
