Description: Moving portraits of three terminally ill people facing their own deaths serves to widen perceptions and understanding of our mortality. Sally, a victim of brain cancer, leaves the hospital to spend her last days in the tender care of her mother. The story of Harriet and Bill is a study in anger, hopelessness and frustration. Reverend Bryant, an elderly minister, comes to terms with his fate in a spiritual way surrounded by his wife, children and grandchildren.
