Trailer
Why watch this film?
Death is an inherent part of life. This is a fact we know from birth, yet we never face it. But that changes when old age comes with its various health issues. The Israeli film tackles this thorny subject, but with a lot of spirit and humor.

My Happy Ending
Starring Andie MacDowell (Sex, Lies and Videotape), My Happy Ending is a dramatic comedy about an actress whose play is canceled on the same day she discovers she has cancer. Her only support comes from four peculiar women she meets during her treatment. It's the kind of movie that could easily fall into sentimentality or cliches. And, despite some production elements still needing improvement, there are excellent performances and a freshness to speak freely and openly about death.
