Is the Abundant Sunshine movie based on a true story?

Answer 1

At the beginning of the film, the narrator says it is, and it seems to me that the compactness and attention to detail with respect to the medical issues in this film indicate that it is, indeed, based on real events.

I really loved the movie, both the first time I saw it when it was first released ( I was 13 at the time ) and the second time, just a few moments ago.

It is the type of film that I believe requires a certain closeness to the way of thinking which the characters are portrayed as having, to the individual watching the movie.

Without that, it would likely not be as powerful.

Answer 2

The Abundant Sunshine Film is entirely fictional, but the makers want you to believe that it is...Think Blair Witch....
