Have you ever heard of One Litre of Tears?
Genre: Drama
Total Episodes: 11
This beautifully moving j-drama is based on the real-life struggles of a 15-year-old girl named Aya who suffered from an incurable disease. Her mother, Shioka, takes Aya to see the doctor, and he informs Shioka that Aya has spinocerebellar degeneration - a terrible disease where the cerebellum of the brain gradually deteriorates to the point where the victim cannot walk, speak, write, or eat. A cruel disease, as it does not affect the mind in the least. How will Aya react when told about her disease? And how will Aya live from now on? She lived life to the fullest until her death at 25. The script is based on the diary Aya kept writing until she could no longer hold a pen. The book that later followed entitled “One Litre of Tears” has sold over 1.1 million copies in Japan alone.
Aya’s only wish was “to live.” By carefully depicting Aya’s earnest desire to live, and the love of her family, friends, and lover, the drama, “One Litre of Tears” wishes to deliver her simple but strong message: “Just being alive is such a lovely and wonderful thing.”—-Fuji TV
I just watched the movie and the movie made me think about my life. I don't have strong will like Aya, I don't have any single clue of what i'll become or what do i want to become. Everyday i think more and more that i don't have any passion and my life may become useless. And so when i watched the movie...i am moved, Just being alive is such a lovely and wonderful thing! I must go strong! I must learn to value my life! I must take a step foward, brave, welcoming to the new unknown world. Simply, i must wake up, live and enjoy my live.
