Why are we running away from death? Can you prepare for the death of a loved one? Who can act as a “mourning companion”? This fascinating documentary delves into the significance of death and grief in society. Featuring traditional mourning songs recorded in contemporary arrangements, the film addresses this taboo subject in an accessible and respectful way.
