Netflix is constantly upping their documentary game, one after another. This time it’s all about death and life… well, mostly death though. Netflix’s next documentary Surviving Death is releasing on the 6th of January 2021. It is based on a bestseller book by Leslie Kean called, “Surviving Death: A Journalist Investigates Evidence for an Afterlife”. The documentary is a 6 part episodic docu-series that will answer questions that most of us have and especially those who have lost a loved one from their lives. The show might trigger a lot of things for somebody as it may lead people to try out things that not all the time is possible. The series is being produced and directed by filmmaker Ricki Stern
The show interviews an array of scientists, researchers, doctors, patients and family members who have lost someone. They answer questions like what even is death. Is there something beyond death? Is death the last thing for one’s life? The differences in soul and body. The afterlife, reincarnations and paranormal that makes us question that there has to be something out there after death or there has to be another explanation to it altogether.
Another really great section focuses on how there has been talk about children going around sometimes and telling experiences that they never had. Parents consider that this must be the afterlife reincarnations of others. Child Psychologists in this documentary too talk about and explain certain instances that can lead to this. Other than this, the signs of paranormal, and everything related in that manner seems like to be discussed in the episodes of the documentary.
