A warm, emotional story centered around four sisters and the relationship they share with their recently widowed mother. While trying to help her cope, each of the sisters begins to understand what is missing in their own lives and relationships, and the lessons they learn affect the entire family. Through good times and bad, the sisters come to rely upon each other as never before. And when tragedy strikes, the family members turn to each other for comfort and support.

A lot of saints are mentioned in The Amati Girls, including Christopher, Lucy, Cecilia, Therese (the Little Flower) and the BVM herself, but the movie should be praying to St. Jude, patron saint of lost causes.

I watched this movie for the first time Sat March 15th, 2008. It really gave me chills just because it was my family. There were 7 kids in my family, 6 girls and 1 boy (he is the baby). One of my sisters is mental retarded and one died with an aneurysm 11 years ago today March 17th. [font=Helv][size=2] So all we have is our sisters and brother. No kidding this was a movie of my family...I loved it.............[/size][/font] [font=Helv][size=2]North Carolina Ivy Hester [/size][/font]
