**Logline: A hypochondriac sets out to make a short film that will be played at his funeral as a final goodbye.**
"The Last Five Minutes" is a dark comedy centered around themes of self-love, mortality, and the importance of living in the now. I'm looking for talented and creative writers to help develop characters, flesh out the world, and assist in writing a few scenes that can be used in the Pitching phase.
