Selvmordslægen

Selvmordslægen is a documentary film.

DR Dokumentar has closely followed Svend Ling's everyday life, where he is contacted on a daily basis by people who want his help. Svend Lings publicly admits that he guides suicide with medicine, and he is, among other things, behind a suicide guide on the net and the 'Læger for active euthanasia' network, which fights for active euthanasia to be made legal in Denmark. In 2017, that openness led to him being stripped of his authorization as a doctor.
