Synopsis:

Attending a regular support group for the terminally ill is difficult enough, but when one member goes above and beyond for another, it shows how selfless humans can be.

Director Statement

I really wanted to explore some profound emotional trauma in this film, Terminal. I knew it would be a tough topic and would challenge my actors, and they loved it! Despite the difficulty in the subject matter, we tackled it as a cast and crew in a positive light
