Great Undertakings

6x30 mins

Great Undertakings looks into the face of death by spending time with those who deal with the taboo on a daily basis - the undertakers - and their connection with the bereaved, those left after death.

The film shows that being surrounded by death does not necessarily lead to a fear of dying, but an emphasis on living.
