About The Film

rtd poster v5

Barbara Mancini, a Pennsylvania nurse, was prosecuted for her aging father’s death before a judge ruled the case had no merit and dismissed all charges against her.

In Right to Die, a short documentary film produced by Compassion & Choices and directed by Emmy award-winning filmmaker Wren Rene, Barbara tells her story — not only of her father’s death, but also how, nine years later, she faced another uphill battle when her mother was dying. Right to Die explores the extraordinary circumstances of Barbara’s story and the all-too-familiar question it raises about dying in the United States: What will it take to honor someone’s wishes?
