A Certain Kind of Death. It's a very stark and dry documentary about what happens to the bodies of people who die with no next of kin. It follows the journeys of three people who die alone, with no heirs, and no relatives to come pick up their stuff.

I remember the guy in charge of the place talking about how very often he'd call the family of a decedent and the survivor would say something like "Oh... well, we always wondered what happened to him." It struck me, made me realize that this is how I was going to go at some point if I didn't change my ways.

I have yet to change my ways.
