Life After - Film and discussion

LIFE AFTER probes the legacy of Elizabeth Bouvia, a disabled woman who, at the age of 26, sought "the right to die," provoking a national debate about autonomy, dignity, and the value of disabled lives. Disabled filmmaker Reid Davenport uncovers echoes of her 1983 case in contemporary stories of disabled people dying prematurely, at their own hands and from a broken health care system.
