The End of It

Synopsis

In a near-future world where ageing can be cured and death is now optional, Claire, a former provocative artist approaching her 250th birthday, decides she's had enough - she wants to die. Her decision stirs conflicts with her husband, daughter and AI assistant, revealing the humorous complexity of their relationships. As Claire uses her impending death to reclaim her role as an artist, she is forced to face what it really means to die, to live, and the messy absurdity of it all.

Andy is the reason world-famous author Andrew, better known to readers as the famously reclusive A.N. Dyer, no longer speaks to his adult sons, Richard and Jamie, nor his ex-wife, Isabel.
