Rest in Peace

The film takes us on a journey across different continents and cultures, through history and right up to the present. It describes the way we handle the dead, what degree of respect we show them, what biological decay they are subjected to, which environmental problems can be caused by their bodies, and how the dead can be of use to the living.
