A heart-breaking tale of love and dreams lost and realised, Midnight Sun tells the life-affirming story of 17-year-old Katie Price (Bella Thorne), sheltered since childhood with a rare disease that makes even the smallest amount of sunlight deadly. During the day she is housebound, but after nightfall, Katie's world opens up, as she is able to venture out to the local train station and play her guitar for travellers. One night, fate intervenes when she meets Charlie (Patrick Schwarzenegger), a high school all-star athlete, whom she has secretly admired for years. She hides her condition from him as the two embark on a uniquely powerful romance over one nearly perfect summer. (StudioCanal UK)

One of many sad romantic flicks, which makes you cry and simultaneously raises awareness of a certain deadly disease. In this case it is about the so-called XP syndrome, which causes allergic reaction to sunshine. Plus, I was quite surprised by Patrick Schwarzenegger, who may one day act even better than Arnold Schwarzenegger… But he will never look better than him.
