This film is intended to be part of the abortion debate, but they have missed a trick here - it is a story of a womb twin survivor.
They hardly mention the lost twin! What a mistake that is!
Are you an abortion survivor? What do you think about this film? Have you seen it?
Here is a bit more.....
When a twin dies before birth, the sole survivor needs help and understanding. Womb twin survivors are the sole survivors of a twin or multiple pregnancy. This group, 1 in 10 of the population, includes survivors of a stillbirth, miscarriage, abortion and a "vanishing twin" pregnancy. It is a story of a twin bond broken by death, leaving a lonely survivor.
I never saw the film but I read the book. It does mention the twin-brother casually. When she learns she had a twin, Hannah reflects on how she always felt there was something missing in her life. This missing feeling wasn't mentioned in the book before, though. ;-)
