Song of All Ends gently leads us into the daily life of a family living in the Shatila Palestinian refugee camp in Beirut, sixteen months after the dreadful port explosion. With slow determination the atmosphere builds through intriguing, as-yet unconnected, images in stark black-and-white – the face of a young girl, a teddy bear, rags flapping in the breeze, roofs strewn with rubble and tarpaulins. Water streams everywhere and skeletal buildings are set against a grey sky littered with clouds.

Bob is a 65 year old Jewish New Yorker who went to Woodstock at 15, designed bathrooms for Elton John and Janet Jackson and is funny and full of life.
He also only has one week to live.
Diagnosed with Parkinson’s, Bob has decided to end his own life using Death with Dignity laws and MAN ON EARTH is the inspiring, surprisingly funny and heartbreaking portrait of Bob's last week on earth.
With unflinching intimacy and incredibly unique access, our film follows Bob as he tries to make peace with his family, the love of his life and himself, right up until he takes his last breath.
Deeply compassionate, MAN ON EARTH is a meditation on time and mortality, asking the big questions, “How do we face death when it comes?” and “What does it mean to live a complete life?”
Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Amiel Courtin- Wilson with sound design by Academy Award Winner Robert Mackenzie, MAN ON EARTH is a cinematic journey with an unforgettable human being.
Bob will stay with you forever.
