We don’t often like to dwell on what will happen to our bodies after we shuffle off this mortal coil, but increasingly, people are eschewing caskets and cremations in favor of donating their bodies to science and medicine. This project follows those who have made such a choice, illuminating their reasons behind it as well as the impact the decision has made on their remaining time on Earth. We also learn more about the process itself, and catch a glimpse of what becomes of the body donor’s final offering.
