Short Time

Getting killed isn't as easy as it looks.

Directed by Gregg Champion

Produced by Gladden Entertainment

A darkly comedic action film that mines absurdist humor from a cop's race against mortality, balancing reckless thrills with genuine affection for family.

As a result of a misdiagnosis, Detective Burt Simpson is told he has just weeks to live. He gains a new respect for his life and loved ones but learns that in order for his wife, Carolyn, and son, Dougie, to collect any insurance money, he must be killed in the line of duty. He then becomes the most reckless man on the police force, volunteering for dangerous assignments over the objections of his by-the-book partner.
