Afterlife
Description
Death is one of life's certainties and the one thing we all have in common. But what happens after we die? 'Afterlife' takes us on a fascinating trip into the remote villages and urban jungles of Asia, exploring old and new ways of ritualising death and celebrating the afterlife with traditions that have existed for thousands of years but are now under threat from the demands of Westernisation.
