From the director of Close My Eyes and The Others comes
this moving and involving drama.Revol (Javier Bardem) wants
to die. After breaking his neck at the age of 20 he has
been paraplegic and bedridden for 28 years and has had enough.
Should he be granted his wish or is it mere self indulgence.
Do we have the right to kill ourselves if we want to? And
what part do those around us play? You might be surprised
at your
own reactions to his situation. With some elements of fantasy,
as Revol escapes hhis condition through his imagination
and at times genuinely moving, this is a powerful and
provocative contribution to the enthanasia debate.
"moving, romantic,
dreamlike, flawlessly acted" San Francisco Chronicle
