After a psychic predicts his death, a small-time hoodlum named Julian hires a cheap documentary film crew to document the last few days of his mis-spent life. This is the film that pioneered the show of the same name.

Dying Fall tells the story of Ben, the estranged son of a well-to-do Boston family who has moved north to Halifax, Nova Scotia, to pursue his studies as a graduate student in music. Ben is stuck in an existential drift until he discovers that he has a potentially fatal aneurysm in his brain. This spurs him to seek out the one experience that he had until this point considered unimportant - trying to find a real connection with a woman, before it's too late.
