When you own a non-denominational funeral parlour. When you’ve lost your driver’s license due to excessive drinking. When you fall in love with an office trainee 25 years your junior. When your daughter begins to understand that you are not the father she believed you to be. When the retired boxer who lent you money is on your heels. When death seems more interesting than life… What could go wrong?

Series
The story of the Andes air crash did not end with the rescue. Another story began when the survivors returned to the neighbourhood where the families of those who did not survive were waiting for them. While the world turned their tragedy into a universal narrative, the survivors had to learn to live with the weight of what they had done. Spanning half a century, this series explores a community divided between the living and the dead, and how retelling a story can change the way we come to terms with it.
