55 Movies to Watch on #WorldCancerDay

Today, February 4, is World Cancer Day, which is a day used to raise awareness about cancer and to encourage its prevention, detection and treatment. The initiative was founded by the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) to support the goals of significantly reducing illness and death caused by cancer by 2020.

Our heart goes out to all the families and friends who have been affected by cancer, which is definitely something that you would never completely understand unless you’ve been affected by it. That’s why we think that on this day the least you can do is try to educate yourself regarding the cause or at least try to get a better understanding of what these people go through.
