Description

In the last few years, poet, performer and slam champion Jonathan Kinsman has lost two grandfathers, a great aunt, a cat and his sanity. Watch him try to process his mum's most comforting piece of advice: Try Not to Worry About It, Death Comes to Us All. Laugh with him, cry with him (but maybe try to avoid hallucinating from stress with him).

It's actually not as deep as one would think.

A genuinely touching and thought-provoking exploration of loss that is both poignant and extremely funny at times. It's not an easy watch given the subject matter, but one I'd highly recommend

I don't think there is a single family unit out there that couldn't identify with the family relationship dynamics upon death (actually quite a sad realisation in itself) the poetry was very clever and although uncomfortable real at times, there is enough levity to balance the truth of the tale
