Gabriel Byrne narrates this award-winning documentary that examines death and how anxiety about dying drives human behavior on a psychological, spiritual and cultural level. The film sticks closely to the research of cultural anthropologist and Pulitzer Prize-winning author Ernest Becker (&NFi;Denial of Death&NFi_;) and explores the ongoing studies of researchers, authors and philosophers such as Irvin Yalom, Sam Keen and Sheldon Solomon.
