Death is something we will all one day face. So why is it so hard for doctors to talk with their patients about dying? How can the medical profession better help people navigate the final chapters of their lives with confidence, direction, and purpose? Renowned surgeon and New Yorker writer Atul Gawande explored those questions in his bestselling book, Being Mortal. Now, Gawande teams with FRONTLINE to bring his personal journey--and the stories of his patients and their families--to life and challenges us all to reexamine how we think about death and dying. This film also explores the burgeoning art and science of palliative care and the ways in which having a conversation around the question "What are your priorities if your time is limited?" can empower patients to live their lives fully. Being Mortal shines an unprecedented spotlight on how patients, families, and doctors all experience the end stages of life, for the ultimate goal is not a good death but a good life--all the way to the very end.

本片由村田实执导、牛原虚彦担任编剧、提倡新剧运动的小山内薰做艺术指导和统筹，是曾经松竹映画的内部独立制片部门——松竹电影研究所（小山内薰领导）仅存的一部电影（共拍摄了三部）。 　　佐藤忠男：“这部影片对同时发生的三件事进行交叉剪辑，插入回想场面等，对电影感的叙事法下了相当的功夫。作品的完整性倒在其次，知识人应该在下等的电影界点燃起良心的灯火，这部作品作为这种行动的证明，而成为一个大话题，使得知识层去关注日本电影，在这个意义上它对日本电影的进步做出了贡献。
