Tender A Documentary Screening at the Community Coffin Club

Join us where the original screening was held back in 2019 in Ulverstone when we welcomed Jenny Briscoe-Hough, CEO of Tender Funerals Australia, and Emily form Social Ventures Australia, to Tasmania with a screening of Tender A Documentary by Director, Lynette Wallworth.

Picture from the day is at the bottom of this post.

The Film:

Set against the stunning backdrop of the industrial seaside town of Port Kembla, a feisty and resilient community group have determined to take back the responsibility that most of us leave to someone else - to care for their own dead.

Scattered throughout are stories that cut to the core revealing why this small band have decided to take on a practice that for most is taboo.

As their plans for community-based funerals gather momentum one of their own is diagnosed with a life-threatening illness. Tender is at once a heartbreakingly beautiful and funny glimpse of an extraordinary community taking on one of the most essential challenges of human life...its end.

This film runs for 73 minutes.

Tender Funerals Tasmania will share what they have achieved so far, and what is still needed and why, to become operational.

Tender Funerals Tasmania's plans by Tasbuilt for their modular home @ The Grace Centre in Hobart will be shown.

Bring a friend and enjoy some light refreshments and wonderful conversations.
