You don't know Jack

Director:
Barry Levinson

61-year-old former pathologist Dr. Jack Kevorkian launches his crusade to provide what he considers to be a humane and dignified option for the terminally ill - assisted suicide. Kevorkian begins offering his "death counseling" services to a grateful and burgeoning clientele, which brings him in the attention of the county prosecutor's office. Provocative, obstinate and complex, Jack ultimately risks it all in his fervor to change the prevailing laws and challenge society's attitude towards the right to die.
