Day 341 - My Flesh My Blood (Polish)

My Flesh My Blood (2009) Poster


"IGOR is a professional boxer whose world comes to a halt when he learns that his brain has been severely damaged from his many years of fighting. Refusing to undergo surgery, he knows that his days are numbered. Not having much left, his last desire is to leave a child behind as his legacy. A young Vietnamese immigrant, YEN HA, agrees to have his baby in return for Polish citizenship. Despite the nature of their agreement, they slowly fall in love, but then Igor's health deteriorates"

It was okay in the beginning and started to get good until the last half when Igor's health deteriorates. I enjoyed the pure acting from all the parties especially from the two leads. I loved the multiple cultures present in the film which really enlightened the movie. It was a bit rough to like Igor in the beginning but he goes through a character change after he realizes he is in love with Yen Ha. It was a decent film but I wish the ending was better as it was a bit predictable and very bittersweet.


1/5
