A Film About Choice

 

Over 1000 people have had an assisted death in New Zealand since it became legal in 2021.

How we die is one of the most important choices we ever make and the film follows two individuals: one has terminal motor neurone disease and the other has been approved for assisted dying.

The film examines the impact of the choice of assisted dying on everyone involved - patients, families, caregivers and doctors.
