Episode Description

Filmmaker Nathan Deming joins Dr. Kendall Moore and Dr. Owais Durrani to talk about Winter Hymns, his feature set over a single winter day in one hospital room as a palliative care physician guides dying patients and their families through the end of life.

Inspired by his father's career in palliative care, Nathan breaks down how the film came together in Wisconsin, and the three of us react to scenes on advance directives, dialysis, dementia and caregiver burnout, and how the system treats doctors who take time with patients.
