The Secret Life of Death reveals a sneak peek inside one of the oldest family-run funeral homes in Australia - Walter Carter Funerals, which has been based in Bondi Junction since the 1870s. Told through the eyes of two of its youngest and most recent female recruits - Jasmine Cameron, a funeral director, and Amber Coote, the mortuary manager - this observational documentary lifts the lid on one of the last great taboos: death.
