Episode Description

Death is a taboo subject in China.  Filmmaker Yuxuan Ethan Wu wants to start the conversation about dying with his short documentary "Death Education" now showing at the Sundance Film Festival.

Learn why some high school teachers in China now teach classes about death, including having students carry the ashes of 'unanamed' people from a crematorium to a public burial ground in this episode.  Also, how long it took Wu to shoot the film and how much money it cost.
