It was filmed on location in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India, and received a nomination for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Short Subject at the 81st Academy Awards.
The film debuted on HBO on April 1, 2009. The Final Inch is the first film project of Google.org, the philanthropic division of Google.

Synopsis

The film depicts the problems still occurring fifty years after the development of the polio vaccine, and shows areas where the polio virus is still found in several countries around the world. Without vaccinations it could re-emerge and re-infect regions where it was eradicated decades ago, and the film also notes that the first line of defense is a dedicated and continual effort by international health workers going door-to-door to ensure every child is vaccinated.

The filmmaker's parents were both born deaf; and the couple raised children who were not deaf. Paul Taylor and his wife Sally Taylor were in their 60s when they both decided to have cochlear implant surgery, which could permit them to hear for the first time. The documentary follows what turns out to be a complicated journey from the comfortable world of silence to a profoundly challenging world of sounds and language.

It also features some information about the neighboring state of Washington's attempt to legalize physician-assisted suicide in 2008 through a law (Washington Death with Dignity Act) modeled after Oregon's.
