Play or Die
Rule # 1: Whatever happens, nothing is true: it's just a game. Rule # 2: One of you is going to die.
Directed by Jacques Kluger
Produced by Boburst Productions, Nexus Factory
A high-stakes psychological death game set in an abandoned hospital that blurs the line between game and reality, driven by paranoia, intellectual challenge, and the threat of actual mortality.
Welcome to Paranoia, the ultimate escape game. Rule #1: Nothing is real. Rule #2: One of you will die. Lucas and Chloe, two passionate gamers, decide to participate to Paranoia, a very exclusive escape game. After solving a first riddle, they make it to the location of the finale in an abandoned mental hospital, lost in a frightening forest. There, four other participants are waiting on them. They soon realize that only one of them will get out of there alive.
