About Women Undertakers: Back for the Dead

Documentary

Synopsis

For millennia, women have cared for the deceased: as death-bed vigils, as undertakers, as guardians of funeral rituals. Then everything changed. Since we no longer die at home, men took over. But today a growing number of women are making a comeback. For the good of the deceased?

Director: Marc Wolfensberger
Original title: Croque-mort au féminin
