Daisy Ridley stars as Fran, an introverted young woman whose life consists of cubicle-dwelling during the work week and sticking around home on the weekends, in Sometimes I Think About Dying. The trailer shows that although Fran prefers her own company, a new coworker draws her attention and might just be the connection to the world that she needs.
In addition to Ridley, the indie drama’s cast includes Dave Merheje, Parvesh Cheena, Marcia DeBonis, Meg Stalter, and Brittany O’Grady. Rachel Lambert directed from a screenplay by Kevin Armento, Stefanie Abel Horowitz, and Katy Wright-Mead.
Sometimes I Think About Dying opens in theaters on January 26, 2024.
“Lost on the dreary Oregon coast, Fran (Ridley) finds solace in her cubicle, listening to the constant hum of officemates and occasionally daydreaming to pass the time. She is ghosting through life, unable to pop her bubble of isolation, when a friendly new coworker, Robert (Merheje), persistently tries to connect with her,” reads Oscilloscope Laboratories’ synopsis. “Though it goes against every fiber of her being, she may have to give this guy a chance. Director Rachel Lambert and team craft beautiful cinema for this delicately told story of love for the socially awkward and emotionally challenged.”
