Synopsis

The existence of mourners as a profession is attested to as far back as Ancient Egypt. This is the name given to anyone hired to feign grief at funerals as a form of tribute to the deceased.

Today, this activity persists in Asia, from India to Vietnam, through China and Singapore.

This series introduces us to a unique and endangered tradition.
