Dying to Live plot

The young, passionate general practitioner Mirjam specializes in the medicine that is most permeated by fear and taboo: end-of-life care. She helps patients to live as well as possible in the event of imminent death. And fulfills their last wish: a beautiful and dignified farewell. Even if that is only possible with palliative sedation or euthanasia. Unexpectedly, Mirjam herself becomes a palliative patient. She wants to complete one more mission: to break the taboo around dying and improve end-of-life care, from her unique perspective as a doctor and patient.
