Synopsis

Death of a Comedian

Actor Juan Debré has spent a lifetime playing the hero in a TV series while remaining detached from his own identity. When diagnosed with a terminal illness, he embarks on a surreal journey to Belgium, birthplace of his childhood comic book idol, in search of meaning and perhaps redemption.

Their friends are horrified, and regret is setting in. They start plotting their revenge— and before they know it, they’re staging an off-Broadway play…
