From executive producers Dan Cutforth and Jane Lipsitz of the award-winning Magical Elves production team (Top Chef, Fashion Star, The Real L Word(R)), TIME OF DEATH is an unforgettable, unflinchingly candid series and each unique, emotionally resonant story serves as a tangible, hopeful reminder of the finite nature of time and mortality.
