Synopsis:

When you're busy living life from one deadline to the next, it's sometimes hard to stop and smell the roses... but there's one thing Life has an upper hand on - the unending possibility of laughter that it promises. The problem is... sometimes, you may just end up as the punch line. Tahatto's A Funny Thing Called Life is a vignette of 6 everyday situations we all encounter; the only difference being that they quickly turn into a twisted, funny joke where you wonder how it came to this. Love at an airport lounge, the meaning of life Home Delivered, a strange Auto ride and a most unlikely conversation. Yeah Life... hahaha...very funny, we got it... now can we move on?
