Sometimes I Think About Dying
Sometimes I Think About Dying is a 2023 American romantic comedy-drama film based on the 2013 play, Killers by Armento, and a short film released in 2019. It film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on January 19, 2023. It is distributed by Oscilloscope Laboratories, founded by Adam Yauch of the Beastie Boys.
Departing from corporate comedy, Sometimes I Think About Dying modestly explores critical human connection through a superbly, melancholic Daisy Ridley.
The plot follows Fran, living on the dreary Oregon coast, as she finds solace in her cubicle, listening to the constant hum of officemates and occasionally daydreaming to pass the time. She is ghosting through life, unable to pop her bubble of isolation, when a friendly new coworker, Robert, persistently tries to connect with her. Though it goes against every fiber of her being, she may have to give this guy a chance.
