LIFE WITHOUT FICTION
Feature film / In development / Fiction
Film of interconnected stories: in the 2000s, a playwright writes a play that quickly becomes a cult hit. Twenty-five years later, the actress starring in the film based on the play leaves the shoot and reunites with her brother, whom she hasn't seen for five years. A director and
two actors rehearse the play, and in the middle of the rehearsal process, one of the actors falls ill with cancer.
"Life Without Fiction" presents fictions as the only possible truth in the face of death.
