THE BARDCAST - Sarah de Nordwall - 28. Can Films Save Lives: Discussing "Plan 75" with Robert Cassidy
Can films and novels help us fight the battle against the multiple dangers of governments allowing assisted suicide? Creatives are often prophetic and their warnings tell truths imaginatively that others might miss. This week the Bardcast returns with a dynamic conversation between Sarah de Nordwall our Bardcast host and charismatic Glaswegian Robert Cassidy, who taught theology and philosophy in America and Austria, to discuss the powerful but tender film from Japan “Plan 75.”A film or novel can be an essential thought experiment. Let’s think together.
