An inspirational story about a teen hero found a way to keep three brothers from being separated. Imagine growing up with a neglectful, drug-addicted mother and three brothers who are about to be scattered to foster homes. This teenage hero found a way to keep them together: Adopt them.
It's not because you claim you love your children, you actually love them. This is the premise for Gracie's Choice. How the person that gave birth to you betrays you, makes your life miserable, this is what this movie is about, and how to overcome all that.
For as long as she can remember, 16 year-old Gracie has been raising her four siblings, each of whom has a different, absent father — and their mother is on the fast track to self-destruction. When these children's lives are about to be pulled apart, Gracie will have to do the impossible and make the ultimate sacrifices to keep her family together. At the age of 17, she decides to be the mother, emotionally and legally, her siblings never had. Inspired by actual events, this movie is sure to touch your heart.

Yudhi wrote : Perjuangan dan pengorbanan yang luar biasa. Adegan paling mendebarkan adalah ketika adik2 Gracie diberi kesempatan memilih oleh Hakim, apakah akan ikut Ibu atau Kakaknya. Dengan berbagai alasan yang menyentuh, masings mereka akhirnya memilih Gracie,kakaknya. Adegan mengharukan lain adalah saat mereka berempat kakak beradik hanya diberi waktu beberapa menit untuk memilih nama keluarga baru mereka oleh Hakim. Ada yang mengusulkan "How about Potter ! Like Harry Potter!".Ada lagi yang mengajukan Lobo (nama kucing mereka). Akhirnya mereka memilih Whetherly, dari papan nama pejabat di dinding ruang pengadilan.
