Sinopsis

This screenplay is based on a true story and memoir,áWhen Angels Fly, and it will take you to the depthsáof hell and back to barely breathing. It is a gallantásaga of two little boys and their mother, with theáyoungest battling cancer with incogitable courageáand resolute determination. The story is compelling,áand has young Eli, a child barely out of the toddler-stage, gets affected with cancer but does not let itáshred his substance, his spirit, his ebullience. Theástory is a slice of real life and it shines in itsáown glory of candor and courage. The story, with itsáimpeccable sincerity, sets in the cascade of emotionalápathways and the empathy is momentous and super-instant.áEli suffers and the agony hits you hard on the face,áyou find Eli vulnerable amidst a sea of medical professionals and paroxysms of protective instinct joltáyou and overpower you, you find a febrile bout tormenting EliâÇÖs well-being, lassitude automaticallyágrips you hard.áThe true essence of motherhood, especially that of a mother in crisis, seeps shatteringlyáthrough the cellular junctions and mixes with the protoplasm and changes your entire beingáfrom âÇÖwhoever-you-areâÇÖ to a mother who fell prey to a wicked attack of the destiny on theámost vulnerable spot. The gory tragedies in this real-life story disturb the core of readerâÇÖsáexistence - a missed diagnosis of cancer by experts, spread of cancer to vitaláorgans,áuncontrolled bleeding due to non-availability of transfusable blood products, catastrophicálung damage due to gross medical negligence etc. The story does a mammoth job of airdroppingáthe reader to a milieu in which the spirit of survivorship calls the shots, galloping courageásets the pace and unfolding of designs of destiny evokes the emotions.áThe child-like glee thickly layers the narrations of the mischiefs that Eli and Noahá(the brothers)áindulged in. Their bond is profound and all scattered in the subtext, âÇÖtwo peas in a podâÇÖ asáthe author sums up. The screenplayásubstanceáis knitted with life-sized narration of events that induces a high-definition visualáimagery, running on loop, giving a highway ride to the sensory nervous system. EliâÇÖs motherácomes across as a fiercely protective mother who has eyes in her occiput, a mother who isáan angel in the kitchen and a buddy in the playground, a mother who believes in getting slivered intoáthin ribbons before allowing a shadow consume her child. Various meanings of life pop up from everywhere andácoalesce together to create a pattern too frightful, too vulnerable, too indomitable and too undaunted,áexactly the way life and its paraphernalia operate together.áNothing is artificial - everyáelement of the story derives its power from the themes of existentialism, belonging, and relationships,áculminating in a steadfast scuffle with the bad guys, the cancerous cells.áEven in the darkest hours, he bolstered his mother with unheard of strength for a boy of this age. EliâÇÖs sage-like wisdom and spiri
