Jack Kowokian is a retired doctor. Before he retired, he was a radical man and always made some crazy moves. Now, although he is retired, he is still actively involved in various medical problems, especially the use of medical methods to end the lives of some people suffering from incurable diseases. Kovokion calls this medical service, which is a A way to solve the suffering of patients.
This method is called " Euthanasia ". In the era when Kovokion implemented it, it was only a legal act in certain countries in Europe. In the United States, there is no law allowing Euthanasia to be implemented. In order to alleviate the patient's pain, Kovorkian decided to try Euthanasia's medical service himself. He designed and produced a set of intravenous injection device that could end the patient's life. Immediately afterwards, with the help of his friends, he began to implement Euthanasia services for patients in pain. However, his behavior was protested by some Americans, and conservative prosecutors also sued him to court.
At this time, a lawyer named Feige was willing to defend Kovokian for free. Because Kovokian recorded the patient's request for Euthanasia every time, his behavior can only be regarded as assisted suicide, not murder. In this way, Kovokian has been walking on the edge of law and morality. Soon after, the Michigan state government revoked his medical license, but he replaced the intravenous injection with poison gas and continued his service.
As his reputation grew, more and more people were looking for him to implement Euthanasia, and Kovokian's ambition gradually revealed-he wanted the public to fully recognize Euthanasia, and he wanted them to know that what he was doing was An epoch-making thing. At the same time, because of the defense of Kovokian, the lawyer Feige saved enough political capital for himself, and he began to run for parliament. Feige, who was on the stage, turned his face and refused to recognize anyone. He said that he was firmly opposed to Euthanasia. Feeling that he was abandoned, Kovorkian decided to take the risk. He recorded his service to a patient in detail and made it public.

    I don't think it is an excellent script, the text itself is too strong. I have been wondering whether this kind of film is like "Balance", and it is even better to make a documentary. The film itself has an attitude tendency. This attitude is more pleasant than sharp, so that my eyes felt sore in the ten minutes before the sentence was pronounced.

    If sickness makes people lose their dignity, why can't you let him die peacefully?
