Screening of Last Ecstatic Days

Procceds to benefit CCLD

Please join us for a screening of the documentary, Last Ecstatic Days, featuring Aditi Sethi: Ethan Sisser, a young man with terminal brain cancer, sits alone in his hospital room. When he starts livestreaming his death journey on social media, thousands of people around the world join to celebrate his courage. Still, Ethan envisions more – to teach the world how to die without fear. To do that, he needs to film his death.

Honoring Ethan’s wish, his doctor Aditi Sethi transports him to an idyllic house in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, North Carolina. What unfolds next is a story rarely glimpsed: how a community of strangers helps a young man die with grace.

A sensory immersion into leaving the body, “The Last Ecstatic Days” reveals a man who will not let us forget him – even after he’s taken his final breath.

Immediately following the screening will be a time of sharing and questions with Aditi.

Tickets for the screening are $10.00 and benefit CCLD. Screening begins at 2:30p
