Veronika Decides To Die marks a change in direction for Sarah Michelle Gellar, as 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 a short time to live.
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.
What seems most bizarre about Veronika Decides To Die was that it actually released in 2009, yet doesn’t seem to have seen the light of day in the US or over here. The US have a cinema release date for it on January 20th 2015.
