"Everyone is Dying" is a short drama film that tells the story of A-Nan, a reformed ex-gang member. To raise the exorbitant funds needed for his wife's cancer treatment, he decides to take the risk and engage in a potentially lucrative drug deal. However, behind what seems to be great hope lies an even greater destruction, waiting to unfold.

As Jesus once said, 'All who draw the sword will die by the sword.' Following this adage, the theme of the film can be summarized as: 'Those who use violence will be destroyed by violence.’"

This thesis will analyze the creative motivation, film theme, and creation process. In terms of the film theme, this work references "Sympathy For Mr. Vengeance" (2002) and "A History of Violence" (2005), and explores related genre films through "No Country for Old Men" (2007) and "Drive" (2011) to define the scope and elements of film noir. Finally, the execution process of this film will be explained, followed by a review of the film and suggestions for future improvements.
