synopsis

It awaits us all, few look forward to it and most of us is afraid of it. Death. When was the last time you talked about it? And is it even necessary? My dad is dying, and among thousand thoughts that run in my head there's one I cannot silence. We are no longer able to deal with death, not at all. Nobody taught us. In the world of modern technology, in our welfare society, we cannot cope with the most basic part of life, its end.
