Our medical system is geared toward healing patients. But what if there's no cure available? This moving, intimate documentary uses three cases to explore how hospice care prepares both terminally ill patients and their families for a gentle, safe passage. While patients are given comfort, companionship, dignity and peace, families are prepared for their inevitable loss.
Letting Go: A Hospice Journey was directed by Albert Maysles, Deborah Dickson and Susan Froemke.
Letting Go: A Hospice Journey runs for 1h 30min, and was released in 1996.
