Throughout time, the fear of death has raised questions about the finite nature of life: What happens after we die, and what is death? In many cultures, religion steps back to make way for more relatable personal stories grounded in modern life, such as the near-death experience. For most people, it's a positive and empowering encounter that alleviates the fear of death, resulting in a new perspective toward life and mortality.

The near-death experience is widely recognized as a phenomenon but is often met with reservation or even condemnation. Research indicates that memories of near-death experiences are even more vivid than actual events, dreams, or thoughts. This is what makes the subject intriguing and cinematic: an irrational, visual, and personal experience that has a life-changing effect but is difficult for people to openly disclose. It's a narrative that allows the viewer to confront their fear of death through someone else's story.

We're not examining this phenomenon through the lens of science, religion, or any other explanation, but rather as a personal experience - from a human point of view. The experiences recounted in the film share familiar details like the light at the end of a tunnel or an overwhelming sense of universal love. These story details, rich with emotion, make these cliched elements tangible in a new, raw manner: how the light manifests itself for different individuals, what an out-of-body experience feels like, or how people still remember their loved ones even after their heart has stopped beating. Typically, the experience leaves individuals with an inexplicable feeling—a mix of gratitude and confusion. Our intention is to engage viewers in this mysterious and confounding journey, inviting them to explore alongside the subjects as they unravel the illogical and incomprehensible experiences depicted in the film.
