On Behalf of the Living

2023Documentary

Anthropologists Otto and Suhr explore how people in two very different cultures—the Netherlands and Baluan Island, PNG—grapple with the universal question of life after death. Their journey reveals not only diverse beliefs, but also their own limits of open-mindedness, moments of skepticism, and struggles to embrace unfamiliar ideas.
