Summary:
Palliative care is one of the least known areas of medicine, and death continues to be regarded as an unnatural event that can be put off. When terminal illness runs through all modern medicine has to offer, patients are left only with palliative care. This documentary follows the lives of four people who are dying, some up to their deaths.
