The Other Side follows the deeply moving story of Lynda Bluestein, a Connecticut-based activist and three-time cancer patient, who fought for the right to choose how her life would end. When the compassionate end-of-life option she sought was unavailable in her home state, she filed a landmark lawsuit in Vermont to gain access to the state’s Death With Dignity law—and won.
This powerful documentary offers an intimate portrait of Lynda’s final year, capturing her courage, advocacy, and humanity as she and her family prepare for her inevitable death.
Join us for a screening of the film followed by a candid panel conversation exploring the evolving landscape of medical aid in dying and what autonomy at the end of life really means.
