A legendary punchline. A fatal mistake. Meet Bhola.
Hit by a truck on a rural mountain road, a highly cynical, movie-obsessed chicken named Bhola dies-only to find an afterlife run like a corrupt corporate nightmare. His accidental death triggers a small-town apocalypse.
Blending razor-sharp dark humor with deep psychological insight, I Couldn't Cross the Road turns a classic joke completely on its head.
If you love the cynical wit, the absurd bureaucracy of high-concept magical realism, and brilliant movie meta-commentary, grab your copy and enter the afterlife terminal today.
