Watchlist:
A middle-aged man is feeling the strain of looking after his elderly grandfather, who is demanding and needs a lot of medical treatment. Then a neighbour suggests a painless way to be rid of him. This black comedy is set in the future, where euthanasia is lawful and increasingly common, but it should still, ideally, be voluntary.
Why you might like this:
Dog Ends is a darkly comedic exploration of euthanasia, driven by strong performances from the cast including Leonard Rossiter. Director Carol Wiseman's 1984 film offers a unique and thought-provoking take on a sensitive topic, blending humor with deeper themes about aging, family, and the value of life.
