Abstract:
Autobiographical documentary films involve the first-person recollection by filmmakers of events that have shaped their identity. Frequently in autobiographical documentaries there is a sense of poignancy in the process of looking back at the past, a sense of yearning for that which is gone, even if that past was not always positive when it originally occurred. What is the nature of this yearning for the past inherent in the process of articulating autobiographical experience, and how can the emotion in the process of re-approaching past experiences be expressed in the most moving way possible

This group of individuals has a vision for transforming how we die in our country.
