Synopsis

In a corner of Félix Bulnes Hospital, the Palliative Care Unit welcomes patients in their final days of life, where the harsh reality of illness contrasts with the warmth and humanity of its team. Through deep empathy, the dedication and the invisibility of these patients finding solace in this small space are brought to light.
