Desc: Mortal Lessons: Directed by David Liban. We are all going to die, yet we spend most of our life avoiding this fact, as if to mention death will bring it upon us sooner. Then when death strikes, we are devastated, in part because we are unprepared. And yet, some of life's most valuable lessons are best learned in the face of death. This is the story of two extraordinary women facing their mortality head on.
