“On the other side of the garden” is a film that talks about life, death, euthanasia, suicide, the rights of the individual and, above all, the judgments that as human beings we tend to make from the place where we live. that we find ourselves, not knowing the history that has led each of us to the decisions we have made. The relationship between the protagonists invites us to look at the other, to compassion, empathy, and unconditional respect for the other to exercise their freedom,” said Daniel Posada, director of the film.
