The Tribecca Film Festival is underway in New York City and tonight June 9, Friday, and Saturday, the next Death Care industry movie, Death Boom, will be one of the featured attractions.

Here’s what is said as part of the synopsis of the movie as explained on the Tribecca Film Festival website:

“Eighty years ago, the “Baby Boom” led to a massive uptick in births. Now, we’re seeing the inevitable end of that surge as those tens of millions of people pass away. This fascinating doc explores the dilemma now facing the funeral industry and the many inventive solutions being pioneered.”

The same synopis goes on to say this:

“In this eye-opening and comprehensive documentary, director Jessica Chandler and producer Eli Roth, who serves as both narrator and on-screen guide, take viewers on an all-access-granted look at this under-discussed issue and how the funeral industry is handling it, sitting down with experts in the field for a firsthand report from the ground level. While never losing sight of the topic’s seriousness, Chandler’s shrewdly accessible doc is a wake-up call of a film that’s also highly entertaining and often quite funny.”

The movie is produced by Leonardo DiCaprio.

At this time, no over the air or streaming dates have been announced.

Here is the trailer to the documentary Death Boom:

Funeral Director Daily take:  Here we go again.  I’ve only seen the trailer, but from what I’ve seen it doesn’t appear that this will be a great public relations episode for our profession.
