Sonja Talking

Film Synopsis:

What if you teenager had only two to three months to live? How would her priorities change? How about yours? It seems like a shocking revelation from this beautiful, funny, and intelligent New Zealand girl, but Sonja Maguire is ‘sick of dying’ and is determined to face her remaining months with courage and grace.

Through personal testimonies and home movies, she allows us to share her journey as she struggles with teenage dreams, pain, anger, and her changing priorities about what is important in life. We marvel at her strength of spirit and the wisdom well beyond her 16 yeras. She makes us acutely aware of the importance of defeating despair, overcoming life’s problems with humor and joy, and in setting new goals in life.
