Six Months to Live

A struggling actor, desperate for a breakthrough, agrees to a bizarre experimental film project. The catch? The character he plays is dying, and the film's producers insist the actor must also prepare for his own demise within six months for 'method' authenticity. As his fictional death date looms, he grapples with love, loss, and the blurred lines between performance and reality.
