Maria, I’m dying! - ICFF - Lavazza IncluCity.

PLOT : A hypochondriac man is convinced that every cough, sneeze, or sniffle means he’s dying, turning minor ailments into full-blown existential crises. His endlessly patient wife has tolerated his dramatic declarations for years, but when his fear of death reaches new extremes, she decides it’s time to intervene. What follows is a humorous and heartfelt journey through paranoia, partnership, and the absurdity of mortality. As the couple unpacks the roots of his irrational fears, they confront deeper truths about love, vulnerability, and control. In the end, they discover that sometimes laughter really is the best medicine, especially when you’re convinced you’re on your deathbed.
