Described as an emotionally compelling and thought-provoking film, Swan Song is written and directed by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Benjamin Cleary (Stutterer). The film stars Mahershala Ali (Moonlight, Green Book), Glenn Close (The Wife), Awkwafina (The Farewell), Naomie Harris (Skyfall, Moonlight), and Adam Beach (Smoke Signals).
“Set in the near future, the series is a powerful, emotional journey told through the eyes of Cameron (Ali), a loving husband and father diagnosed with a terminal illness who is presented with an alternative solution by his doctor (Close) to shield his family from grief,” reads the official synopsis. “As Cam grapples with whether or not to alter his family’s fate, he learns more about life and love than he ever imagined. “Swan Song” explores how far we will go and how much we’re willing to sacrifice, to make a happier life for the people we love.”
