Leave Them Laughing

Academy Award winning Documentary Film Director and former UBC Film Production Instructor John Zaritsky invites you to join him for a sneek peek of his latest documentary Leave Them Laughing.

Leave Them Laughing

2009, Unrated, 90min

A Canadian California comedienne rolls toward doomsday (due to ALS) vowing that humor will be the last sense to go. She is Carla Zilbersmith, ex-actor, ex-singer, ex-teacher, ex-redheaded hottie, and soon to be ex-human being. Ninety riveting minutes of songs about life and quips about death from the wheelchair of a woman who vows to exit laughing.
