Sometimes I Think About Dying
Directed by Rachel Lambert
Produced by Page Fifty-Four Pictures, Mirror Image Films
A tender, melancholic character study about a woman with suicidal ideation learning to connect with another person, balancing dark introspection with quiet moments of warmth and possibility.
Fran likes to think about dying. It brings sensation to her quiet life. When she makes the new guy at work laugh, it leads to more: a date, a slice of pie, a conversation, a spark. The only thing standing in their way is Fran herself.
