Abstract/Summary
The theme of death is frequently portrayed as something heavy and dramatic in Philippine cinema and in various media. Because of this, the proponents have created a comedy-drama short feature which explores a different perspective on death. The short film tackles life and death through friends of polar opposites living in an alternate world wherein the dates of people's death are known. Through this short feature, the students aim to showcase the lighter aspect of death, a shift in the way death and life are handled as a pair. The proponents want to highlight that the awareness of death may serve to be important, but it should not become a hindrance or even an excuse to be complacent and ignore everything else important in one's own individual life.
