Mag ik dood (2008)

A documentary about the rights to physician-assisted suicide for those with permanent mental disabilities in the Netherlands. Journalist and filmmaker Eveline van Dijck lost her sister, who suffered from a progressive psychotic disorder. After many treatments, she continued to endure severe depression and ultimately took her own life after years of suffering. Eveline questions whether a more humane solution for her sister would have been to die differently. The film features interviews with family members whose loved ones ended their lives by suicide and discusses the possibility of exercising the right to die.
