After death, a disgraced piano prodigy must inhabit the lives of those he wronged to earn redemption, guided - and needled - by a mischievous Death who thrives on testing his humanity.

SYNOPSIS:

My Life Before Me is a darkly comedic existential drama with a procedural twist, following disgraced piano prodigy Slayton Greaves after his untimely demise. Confronted by Death, personified as the flamboyant and sharp-tongued David, Slayton must inhabit the lives of those he wronged to earn redemption—or face eternal oblivion.

Each "test-drive" forces Slayton to experience the ripple effects of his selfishness, from a bullied middle schooler to the former lover he betrayed. Through surreal humor, emotional reckonings, and absurd predicaments, Slayton begins to see the humanity he’s long ignored. But as the stakes grow higher, he must confront the truth: redemption requires more than regret—it demands change.

In a world that blends biting humor, poignant reflection, and a touch of the surreal, Slayton’s journey is a twisted procedural of morality, consequence, and redemption.
