Obit

Regie von Vanessa Gould
USA, 2016
Dokumentarfilm

Darum geht's

Every morning, a small staff of obituary writers at The New York Times deposits the details of three or four extraordinary lives into the cultural memory—each life’s story spun amid the daily beat of war, politics, and football scores. What do we choose to remember? What never dies?
