The Art of Conversation
16 mm film | 29 minutes | 1994SYNOPSIS
Jack Stone is bright yellow and fairly cheerful about it, all things considered. He has terminal liver cancer and must spend his last month on earth in a hospital. Family, friends, and total strangers surround Jack's bedside to engage him in meaningful conversation while Jack's wife tries to fend off the visiting intruders. The film is a humorous and pointed examination of "conversations" in the face of death.
