Shortlist, A-Dios by Marcos Azulay

Since its foundation in 2002, the San Camilo Hospice in Argentina has supported more than 2,000 people with life expectancies of less than six months, and their relatives and friends, without discrimination. Inspired by Mother Teresa, it was set up to help those with little money or no family support. Services are free and the hospice is sustained by donations and the work of 200 volunteers. In a culture where we turn our backs on death, and where euthanasia may end up being legalised, places such as San Camilo ensure nobody needs to feel abandoned. I made contact with the hospice in March 2019, aiming to record and share testimonies of people in their last stages of life. A few months later, I started volunteering there.
