The film"s page
Dans un monde fasciné par les médias où l’on croit plus à la télévision et à l’image qu’à la vie qu’on a soi-même vécue ou aux expériences que l’on traverse, Katherine Mortenhoe est sur le point de mourir. Ferriman, le directeur d'une émission de télé-réalité, lui propose de lui acheter sa mort et de diffuser son agonie en direct.
Note : La Mort en Direct est l’adaptation du roman d’anticipation The Continuous Katherine Mortenhoe de David Compton publié en 1974.
