This is an entertaining and inspiring series on the one thing we know for sure: that there is an end. The presence of death in our lives is far larger than we often think, and it has a fascinating effect on how we lead our lives.
This series will probe this often yielded subject with humour, curiosity, openness and respect.

High production value, solid research, shifts between individual examples and macro level are some key words. The cases in each episode will be structured thematically. Both the individual episodes and the series as a whole will go from the simplest questions to the complex and diverse answers and practices we find around the world. Sometimes we find symmetry, other times contrasts – often in surprising ways.
