Rebecca Skloot is an best selling author of The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, which has been
translated into more than twenty languages, adapted into a young adult book, and an
HBO film.
Baseado em um best-seller mundial e estrelando Oprah Winfrey, o filme conta a história de uma mulher afro-americana cujas células retiradas após sua morte sem o seu consentimento levaram a uma descoberta médica bilionária e sem precedentes.
On a remote island off the coast of Maine, Liv, after years of silence, begins to weave a language out of Shakespeare's words. A driven neurologist, brought to the island to protect her, commits her to a psychiatric hospital. She becomes a full-blow rebel in the hospital; her increasing violence threatens to keep her locked up for life as she fights for her voice and her freedom.
