Laura’s Choice (U)
Includes Panel Discussion with Cathy Henkel and Ray Borcherds facilitated by Pam Townshend
Kiosk opens 30 minutes prior to screening
Tuesday, July 14 @ 7:00 PM – 9:15 PM
Laura’s Choice is a powerful and deeply personal documentary following 90-year-old Laura Henkel, who decides to end her life on her own terms.
Asking her daughter Cathy and granddaughter Sam — both filmmakers — to document her journey, Laura sets out to challenge taboos around death and the right to choose when and how life ends. After a life-changing illness, she pursues legal assisted dying in Switzerland, inviting her family to accompany her in her final days. As three generations navigate this emotional and complex path, they confront differing views, ethical questions, and the reality of saying goodbye. Honest, confronting and ultimately moving, Laura’s Choice explores dignity, autonomy, and the deeply human experience of facing the end of life.
Includes a Panel Discussion at the conclusion of the screening with Director Cathy Henkel and Voluntary Assisted Dying Practitioner Ray Bourcherds facilitated by Pam Townshend.
