All the Other Days (Los demás días)
(90 min; 2017; Spanish with English subtitles)
Director: Carlos Agulló
 
All the Other Days packs a powerful emotional punch and opens the door to reflection from audience members on the sensitive topic of palliative care.
 
Through the daily work of Dr. Pablo Iglesias, we are witness to the world of palliative care and, hand-in-hand with his patients as we experience their doubts and convictions, their hopes and fears, we are given a meaningful lesson about life and death. Pablo not only relieves their physical pain, but also accompanies them through the emotional and spiritual journey that the end of life entails.
 
The conversations between patients and relatives, young and veteran doctors, nurses and psychologists will allow us to accept death as a natural and essential part of life.
