The Intensive Life Unit

Taglines

Overview

Even though doctors Ondřej and Kateřina look after their patients to the best of their ability, they can’t prevent their death. As heads of palliative care at Prague’s General University Hospital they face the inevitability of the end on a daily basis. Yet what perhaps makes their job harder is the myriad options now open to them to prolong human life – and this at a time when death has become a social taboo. Betraying her special brand of empathy, documentarist Adéla Komrzý demonstrates that, while there’s no good or bad way to die, there’s always a means to improve patients’ quality of life.

Jednotka intenzivního života

Co znamená život? Že srdce bije a plíce dýchají?
Overview

Ač lékaři Ondřej a Kateřina pečují o své pacienty ze všech sil, jejich smrti zabránit nedokážou. Nevyhnutelnost konce přesto není tím nejtěžším, čemu jako vedoucí oddělení paliativní péče VFN v Praze čelí. Pilotní projekt, jímž se mají inspirovat další zdravotnická zařízení v zemi, vzniká v době nepřeberných možností prodlužování lidského života, kdy je smrt společenským tabu a se strachem z ní se musí každý popasovat sám.
