The Last Stop
At the end of the line, the hardest choice isn’t dying—it’s deciding if you’re done living.

To do—or to die.
— Death
Overview
On the day he plans to end his life, a widowed old man sets his affairs in order and heads toward what he believes will be his final destination. Along the way, small, unexpected encounters begin to crack open something he thought was long gone—purpose. What starts as a routine goodbye turns into a quiet reckoning with grief, memory, and the life he’s been running from. When he arrives at a surreal bus terminal between life and death, he’s forced to confront a simple but impossible question: is he truly ready to let go? In a place where every soul must choose, the answer may not be what he expected.
