About the film:

Feeling limited by her cultural upbringing around death, filmmaker Dr. Michelle Peticolas, seeks a more satisfying approach to the loss of her parents. Using San Francisco's Day of the Dead as a backdrop, she reveals the stories of four people: Dan, a no-nonsense guy who gets caught up in the mystery of his wife's dying; Marcia, who is spiritually-guided to accompany and wed a man with cancer; Gladys, the compassionate church-friend of an HIV positive man who has been abandoned by his family; and Geoff, an only-son coping with the double loss of his mother and his father. From diagnosis to death to mourning, the film explores the heart and soul of grief.

SPEAKER BIO:

Dr. Michelle Peticolas has been working in the field of death and loss for over 17 years. She has a Ph.D. in Sociology with a minor in Clinical Psychology.


She produced the award-winning 3-part documentary series, Secrets of Life and Death, featuring consciousness leader Ram Das and Zen Hospice Founder Frank Ostaseski, who also appeared in Bill Moyer’s 4-part PBS series, “On Our Own Terms.”
