Synopsis

Kiss and Cry (2017) is a Canadian drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Sean Cisterna and starring Sarah Fisher as Carley Allison, with Chantal Kreviazuk and Luke Bilyk in supporting roles.

At eighteen, Carley is a competitive figure skater and aspiring singer. Then comes a diagnosis her doctors have almost no precedent for — a sarcoma so rare her case is estimated at one in 3.5 billion. Rather than disappear from public life, she starts posting videos online and keeps skating. The story spreads across Canada.

The film stays close to what actually happened: the real Carley Allison lived publicly with her illness for several years and became a symbol of resilience for rare-cancer awareness campaigns. Cisterna keeps the sentimentality in check — the film moves through rink ice, rehearsal footage, and hospital hallways without turning any of it into a showcase scene. It earns the emotion rather than manufacturing it. Stream Kiss and Cry online on iFILM.
