I watched this film last night. It follows the journey of a young woman who is starting a new job as a euthanasiast. The film starts with a bit of text that says that euthanasia has been legalised and this sets the scene. So we follow the character on her first solo job and everyone she meets is creepy in one way or another. The patient she puts to sleep suddenly sits up, vomits and then calls out the word “murderer” and the patient’s husband grabs a pillow and puts it over her face. Not a great start. She goes back to her flat and her landlord is also very creepy. In the middle of the night she get up and opens her door to find him reading the bible loudly on the stairs. He tells her he has a message from God for her: that the people she puts to sleep don’t go to him. He tells her she has to leave.
The second part of the film has her team up with another euthanist who has been doing it longer. So they go to this mansion house and the rest of the film is set there. I do have to confess I fell asleep for some of the later stages in the mansion. I did wake up for the climax and it is good. Not a bad film overall really.
