Dying for a Living

Disparaged and depressed, Joe seeks assistance from Christo, a shady individual, to help make a life altering decision. The catch is, Christo may or may not comply.

Dying for a Living is a powerful Suspense Drama. It presents strong commentary about broken individuals rediscovering their purpose, as well as recognizing their personal responsibility to themselves and others.
