Facing your final days - True Story Documentary Channel

At the age of 52 and suffering from terrible chronic back pain, Victor D’Altorio decided to end his life, informing many of his friends and loved ones via his blog. With searing honesty, we follow his last months as the attempts to intervene turn to acceptance and understanding. Director Brendan Brandt puts together one final acting class for Victor to teach to remind him of the life he once loved living, he teams with other students to produce the play that Victor had written, and inevitably does all he can to convince his new friend and mentor to stick around. Victor’s charm, humour, warmth and positive energy are at odds with how society views ‘suicide’ and he is able to articulate how he arrived at his difficult decision, and what it means to face your final days head on.
