Rosendale Theater invites you to a special screening on Monday, September 30th of the documentary “The Last Ecstatic Days,” followed by a conversation with Dr. Aditi Sethi, founder of the Center for Conscious LIving and Dying, and Karen Bellone, founder of the Seventh Sense Care Collective.
Ethan Sisser, a young man with terminal brain cancer, sits alone in his hospital room. When he starts livestreaming his death journey on social media, thousands of people around the world join to celebrate his courage. Still, Ethan envisions more – to teach the world how to die without fear. To do that, he needs to film his death.
Honoring Ethan’s wish, his doctor Aditi Sethi transports him to an idyllic house in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, North Carolina. What unfolds next is a story rarely glimpsed: how a community of strangers helps a young man die with grace.
A sensory immersion into leaving the body, “The Last Ecstatic Days” reveals a man who will not let us forget him – even after he’s taken his final breath.
