Out for Delivery
When terminally ill Joanna makes the difficult decision to pursue end of life options through the Death With Dignity law, the systems set up to make her death peaceful and dignified become the opposite.
When terminally ill Joanna makes the difficult decision to pursue end of life options through the Death With Dignity law, the systems set up to make her death peaceful and dignified become the opposite.
Inspired by unfortunately true events, OUT FOR DELIVERY follows Joanna's bumbling journey to seek a peaceful end of life option through the death with dignity medication. What begins as a massive failure of the systems in place to make our lives (or deaths) "easier", evolves into a genuine human connection that might just give Joanna the peaceful exit she hoped for.
