Abstract

The encounter of bioethics, law and cinema offers the opportunity to turn a new regard toward biomedical issues. Among these issues, palliative care is a subject that appears through recent publications of laws on this field. The theme of the end of life is challenged between screen and reality. As a point of reference for this brief discussion, the Italian film La prima cosa bella gives a delicate and sensitive look at human relationships involving assistance to terminally ill patients and healthcare structure directed to their support.
