FRONTLINE

The Suicide Plan

Season 2012 Episode 22 | 1h 23m 41s

FRONTLINE explores the underground world of assisted suicide and takes viewers inside one of the most polarizing social issues of our time – told not only by the people choosing to die, but also by their "assisters," individuals and right-to-die organizations that put themselves in legal jeopardy by helping others to die.
