Project Name :
Veronika Decides To Die
Genre : Drama
Synopsis :The film
adaptation of the novel by Paolo Coehlo whose other works include The
Alchemist and over a dozen other works. This is Coehlo's exploration
of Redemption. The story centers on Veronika, a woman in her mid
twenties who appears to have everything: good looks, good job and a
great life ahead of her. Yet she decides to end her own life. She is
unsuccessful and awakens in a mental hospital where she learns that
she has five days to live. We learn that the reason that she attempted
suicide was that she felt so constrained by the rules and expectations
of 'normal' society that she had concluded that she had experienced
all that life had to offer. However in the hospital she meets people
who are only 'insane' because they don't always follow society's
rules. With little left to lose, Veronika embarks on a journey on
which she frees herself to experience relationships and emotions and
ultimately discovers what it means to live.
