- A psychological experiment between two friends spirals out of control. How bad could it be?
- Inspired by a flippant remark about the treatment of prisoners at Guantanamo Bay, filmmaker A.J. Bond made a bet with his close friend, actor David Amito, to see which of them could withstand a week of psychological torture at the hands of the other. What begins as a bizarre and darkly humorous experiment gradually spirals out of control, testing the limits of their friendship.—Anonymous
- A.J. and Dave, a filmmaker and actor respectively, have been friends and professional colleagues ever since A.J. cast Dave in his first ever film, a student film, and despite the outwardly unpleasant experience it was for Dave because of the overwhelming control A.J. wielded, it changed the course of Dave's career, he who was previously studying to become a biologist. With the two discussing the plight of a prisoner at Guantanamo Bay held captive and presumably tortured for seven years without charge, Dave believes that he would withstand the situation better than A.J. in being emotionally unstable already, while A.J. believes he, if indeed innocent of any wrongdoing, would never be in for seven years in being able to reason his way out with his captors. With this difference of opinion, the two embark on a bet: one will hold the other captive in a room for up to seven days, with the captor, using whatever means, except anything illegal or physically violent, within that time to "break" the other, the break being the the captive providing the password to an already sent etransfer to the other of $10,000. They would then switch places. Beyond the two straddling the line between fantasy and reality in the bet being filmed to be edited into a movie and their want on occasion to provide some semi-scripted dramatic elements, each of A.J. and Dave may veer into working onto their own individual motivations beyond the $10,000, those motivations stemming from the inherent natures of their individual beings and their "friendship".—Huggo
