Abstract

The film Vortex, directed by Gaspar Noé and released in 2021, portrays the end-of-life process of a couple residing in France. The power of this work lies not only in the faithful correlation of the narrative with real everyday events, but especially in the sublime and sensitive way in which the story is presented. It is a contemporary show that allows to elucidate intimate family dynamics in the terminal stage. Therefore, it stands as a work of great value for those who care for people who are dying, such as healthcare professionals, and raises reflections of a social nature for the postmodern world.
