Changing the Story of Death

After her son’s tragic overdose, a grief-stricken mother in conservative, rural North Carolina transforms her unimaginable loss into an annual Death Faire, a gathering where the community comes together to confront death, process grief, and celebrate life. In another small Southern town, a woman with terminal cancer prepares for her own death on her own terms—with courage, humor, and intention.

This powerful documentary by Carey McKelvey follows the stories of two women who, surrounded by friends, family, healers, a death doula, musicians, and community, make the same choice: to embrace death as a profound invitation to love more deeply, grieve more openly, and live more fully.
