Title from title frames

This documentary weaves the stories of patients with life-threatening illness, with the stories of the nurses who guide them as they make choices about how they want to live, how much medical technology they can accept, what they hope for and how that hope evolves. DEFINING HOPE focuses on palliative care, end of life issues, hospice care and what 'quality of life' really means. It offers a hopeful message about bringing power back to the patient and helping people understand that they have choices when deciding on care when confronting life threatening illness. Winner of Best Documentary Feature at the **Heartland International Film Festival**. *"Shining a light on hospice and palliative care, approaches that are still considered alternative, Defining Hope builds a persuasive case for the ways they empower patients and their loved ones." - Sheri Linden, **Hollywood Reporter***
