Directed by Paul Chart
Produced by Destiny Entertainment, Millennium Media
A darkly philosophical road thriller where chance and moral ambiguity drive a dangerous romance between two strangers willing to abandon their rules.
Criminal psychiatrist, Jake Nyman is taking a much needed vacation from responsibility. An experimental road trip during which ever decision will be made on a flip of a coin. Meanwhile, Sandra Thomas, disenchanted professional, is en route to pick up her flunked out sister, Alice, at a cheap motel before continuing on to visit their ailing mother. After being forced off the road by a mysterious assailant, however, Sandra is picked up by Jake, who's coin flipping amoral attitude quickly excites her own desire to break a few rules. Or worse.
