Seven Songs for a Long Life Film

What do you do when you are 45 and diagnosed with bone cancer? Or as a young mother with hodgkins lymphona? Or if you are lucky enough to make it to your sixties but your lungs and hips are gone? This film offers a surprising answer. You sing, and maybe you dance. This feature documentary follows six patients after a terminal diagnosis. When you know your death is imminent, it is time to take stock of your life. It is also time to fulfil dreams that have been lost. Dealing with the shock of the final diagnosis, the patients allow us to share their emotional and physical journey at home, through hospital treatments, and then in the hospice. In these last months, they rediscover some of their earlier passions – for music, and even for dance.
