Varanasi - Facing Death Without Fear

This documentary journeys to Varanasi, the Indian holy city on the Ganges where many Hindus hope to die and be cremated. Believers hold that death here can break the eternal cycle of birth, death and rebirth, drawing the dying from across the country. Through its rituals it explores how a whole culture faces mortality without fear. Contemplative and revealing, it offers an intimate look at sacred death on the banks of the Ganges.
