A dark, high-stakes survival thriller that weaponizes mass media and audience complicity, forcing viewers to confront the ethics of entertainment built on human peril.

A candidate in a game show is hunted by three men. He will get a Million DMark, if he survives for a week; the hunters will get the money, if they can kill the candidate. The audience of the show is watching the transmissions of twenty camera teams filming the hunt. The showmaster appeals to the TV-viewers to help either the candidate or the hunters, whomever they want.
