Everyone will grow old, it is a fact that life cannot be separated. Advances in medical technology mean that we have to experience a longer old age than before, but the problem of treating the elderly is getting worse.
After the last time Marty drove and failed, he sighed and took out a little book, which reads the things he could no longer do: shower, dress, climb upstairs, grab bags, and bend over. At his 92nd birthday party, Marty announces that he has decided to end his life in two months. She started preparing 30 years ago and continues to tell her children that when her physical strength is gone, her life changes. When it was tough and difficult, he would rather choose to leave with dignity.
Marty's family strongly rejected his decision, accusing him of only caring about himself and not taking other people's feelings into account. Her son Pier thought she was just sick and in need of care; her daughter Diane wanted to take her to live with him, so she could take care of him.
Marty carefully arranges the gadgets she cherishes the most, packs them carefully, pastes sticky notes, and writes notes. The house became a little empty, and the fat maid wanted to help her wash the sheets. She said no one should wash sheets for other people. Dirty things, once people can't keep them clean, they have to leave.
The family didn't understand Mattie, she didn't argue, but kept repeating: "You don't understand me, I'm running out of time, and then it's too late, I'm exhausted", Mattie passed out and she was in the hospital Pierre and Diane who hurried over said: "I'm don't want to die in the hospital. I have suffered. My body is deteriorating. I peed like a child. I hope you can let me go in peace. "
Diane understood it, but she couldn't, until Marty lifted her skirt to reveal her old diaper. Diane compromised and helped her escape from the hospital. The two of them drink and taste food together, and are in a fast speeding car. Smile brighter.
Death is a reality that everyone must face. In the tropical rainforests of South America, there is a tribe called Disana who believes that the world is a constant body of energy, flowing in everything. Therefore, the birth of one life brings the end of another, and in the same way, each death brings about another, and the energies of the world thus remain in balance.
In the final stages of life, Marty gives birth to a baby in the parking lot, Marty who is about to die meets a new life, and humans are passed on from generation to generation.
Mattie constantly emphasizes to her family that she has no regrets in her life, that her job is satisfying, and that her kids are caring, but when her time is up she has to go. Marty spent her final time with her husband, watching him bedridden and relying on various tubes to support him. He didn't want to be tortured like that. We cannot force other people to live. Marty wants to die while he's alive. still alive.
Diane and Piet each represent two different attitudes. Piet emphasized that Mattie's decision was very selfish and did not take other people's thoughts into consideration. However, Piet's approach did not take Mattie's feelings into account, making her even sadder; After a painful struggle, Diane stands firmly beside Mattie, accompanies her, reminisces about the past together, handles the furniture, and even takes her to see the final side of her first love.
The "Final Lesson" is adapted from the real experience of the mother of former French Prime Minister Leonel Jospin, Mihaier Jospin, who is a member of the ADMD (Association for the Dignity of Death). How to deal with death is an unavoidable problem for everyone, but we only start thinking about it when it actually comes.
When life is no longer dignified, is there any meaning and value?
Everyone will have different answers, and the most important thing is to respect the choices of others.
