GriefwaIker is an extraordinary portrait of Harvard-trained theoIogian Stephen Jenkinson, who teaches that death empowers us to live and that we must know grief weII in order to appreciate our own lives. Many may find Jenkinson's beIief that our deaths are not something to be denied or avoided but 'befriended' as chaIlenging; he points out that not every culture fears death as we do. The film carries viewers into the Iives of those confronting death, as welI as those learning how to help people die well.
Combining beautiful imagery of the impermanence of nature and the actuality of dying, GriefwaIker weaves an iIIuminating picture of a remarkable man and Ieaves us with a deeper understanding of how our deaths could be heId as 'a prized possession.' |
