DVD-R. "We are all going to die -- sooner or later -- but there can be great differences in how we relate to death. Death can appear frightening or leave us with grief, but it can also engage us, provide food on the table, money in the wallet or even entertain us. There are those who try to avoid it, but also others who deal with it on a daily basis. What is death, and how do we best live with it? Shot around the world on 100 locations in 25 countries- tackling death from the physical, spiritual, creative, commercial and political angle - a father and his eight-year old daughter, whose mother has died, lead through each episode. In episode 5 of 5, The Politics of Death, death is shown to have major practical and symbolical impact on politics. Is there an ideal life expectancy for a society to function? And what happens when one person's death becomes more important than another's? "--Publisher's description.
