This film is all about how women cope with the disease that is Breast Cancer. Throughout this powerful documentary various women are interviewed at different stages from diagnosis to treatment. Different women make different decisions regarding treatment and issues of body image and femininity are brought up. The different stories and stark brutal honesty is what makes this movie so special. These women bravely share their fears and hopes as they battle their disease.I found myself connecting to them all and hoping they would pull through and getting angry at some of their choices. I left feeling inspired by these women's perseverance and recommend it not only for those suffering this cruel disease, but anyone because this disease truly affects us all!
I liked the way this movie was filmed. It follows the lives of, I think 9 women, and the different stages of their cancer and life stages. You get to know these woman and I really liked all of them. This film is educational, it follows some of the women as they are getting different treatments done. They talk about their decisions to have double mastectomies or not to. What they think about them good or bad. One woman believes her in-vitro fertilization caused her breast cancer. Now she has two young children. I had never heard this before. She talks to different doctors about this. I like this film because it shows women trying different options to try to fight their cancer, to stand up for themselves and be their own advocate. I think this is a good film to watch if you or someone you know has breast cancer. All these ladies are very strong and brave.
This is more the documentary this is a public service. I have known many women who have been afflicted by this disease, and this documentary sheds light on what women go through when they are diagnosed with this terrible disease. The film follows several different women as they come to terms not only with their diagnosis, but with their treatment. Through each story we see that although the circumstances might differ there is one constant and that is strength. Strength can come from, a partner, from family, from humor, but most importantly strength must come from within. I found myself, laughing, crying and at times getting angry with these women (One forgoes chemo in favor of holistic medicine.) It made me question how I would handle it. All in all I came away inspired, and hopeful. A great service for all women!
I liked the honesty of this film. It answered questions I had but never asked. They talked about everything from double mastectomies, holistic approaches, diet to wigs. It was very educational for me. What I heard loud and clear, is to always get a second opinion! Because many of the women were not diagnosed right away, they were told it was not cancer. Thus wasting valuable time.
The stories of the lives of these women were all so interesting to me. Even though they had cancer and felt like crap (many days) they were not giving up. They continued to live full lives. This too, was another point in the movie was to keep active! I recommend this film to everyone.

Excellent film on breast cancer. It's honest. Nothing is staged. It shows you have to be strong to fight it. At times, they are honest and say they don't know if they want to continue with the treatments. But what it says to me is- you just take one day at a time. The will to live is strong in these ladies. They continue on with their lives between Chemo and surgeries. One lady rides horses, even though some days she feels awful she still feels good on the horses. That is what they seem to do is to keep busy and finding things to take their mind off of the negative and put their energy into something else. Also, surround yourself with people, with friends, even if you are not in a current relationship. This helps keep your spirits up.
