Byôin de Shinu to Iu Koto plot

"For patients, nurses, doctors and all other people."

A mix of narrative, short stories about people struggling with illness and death in a hospital, and short, documentary-style segments in which life goes on outside the hospital. There's an elderly couple who want to stay together anyway, and a bum who had to be picked up from the street and gets no visitors.
