Jack Has a Plan

USA, Feature Documentary, 2022, 73 min

As joyous, thrilling and funny as any film about death could be. San Francisco Examiner

Jack Tuller’s brain tumor has come back aggressive and inoperable, and now he has two choices: have a long, wasting, and expensive death, or see a Serious-Illness Management Counselor who can make all the arrangements for Jack to end his life, hassle-free. With his date of death, Going-Away Party, and funeral arrangements all set, Jack is now free to find and reconcile with his long-estranged mother. Buoyed by curiosity and his lifelong love of absurdity, Jack heads back out on the streets to look for his long-imagined father and finds even more surprises. Through this film, get to know this smart, gentle and silly person, and we might even recall Jack’s adventures when we get closer to our own terminal breath.
