Plot

A wealthy New York investment banking executive hides his alternate psychopathic ego from his co-workers and friends as he escalates deeper into his illogical, gratuitous fantasies.

Sinekatalog’s take

A razor-sharp satire of status obsession, in which business cards matter more than people and violence may or may not be real. Cold, funny and unnerving. Not for the squeamish, but those who enjoy dark social commentary will find it fascinating.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
