About the event

Can I Get a Witness - Film Screening Fundraiser
Can I Get A Witness - Film Screening
Hosted by Nelson & District Hospice Society

Date: Monday, 15 September
Venue: Capitol Theatre, Nelson
Time: 6:30 (Doors 6pm)
Tickets: $25

Join us for a community screening of the poignant documentary starring Sandra Oh, "Can I Get A Witness", a deeply moving exploration of death, dying, and human connection.

This film challenges the cultural silence around dying, shining a light on the importance of presence, ritual, and compassionate witnessing at the end of life. Through personal stories, interviews, and intimate scenes, "Can I Get A Witness" invites us to reimagine how we support one another through death and grief.

Following the screening, there will be a facilitated conversation and Q&A on topics of the Medical Aid in Dying (MAID) with Dr. Kelly Mieske, Dr. Trevor Janz and others well-versed in this topic.

This event is part of Nelson Hospice's ongoing commitment to creating open, supportive spaces for dialogue around death and dying.

Refreshments and raffle ticket sales available.
