“Six in total. Four for the flames, one for me, and one witness cremation…busy. Alright let's get started”. Kris is navigating her day to day life as a young mortician preparing the bodies of the departed for their final send off. As Kris prepares each of the bodies, the dead experience their “last words”, a chance to relive, reminisce and remember a moment from their lives. What happens to those who are left behind? How do we learn to live with the dead?
