## Resource

On this episode of Tubi Dumpster Dives, I manage to pull out a gem in Uberto Pasolini's 2013 film "Still Life" about a quiet London civil servant who administers the last affairs of recently deceased destitutes and vagrants. It provides a nuanced look into middle age male loneliness, the tragic but necessary affairs of one's passing, and the nature of duty in the face of faceless institutional bureaucracy. Available here, on Substack video and on Spotify and Apple podcast in audio form.
