Lights Out in The Big City! An invitation to become rich and famous. A dream come true, but is it when you have been hiding from society to stay alive? Greed takes over and places everyone in the line of fate. Will you live or die? There's no way out.
When there's greed involved there's always a crime.
World-renowned Thomas Hollis Productions is in a state of financial ruin. In an effort to save his company, Thomas Hollis forces his avaricious producers into a fierce competition by instructing them to create a Reality TV drama that will turn his company's financial state around. The winner gets to keep his job and the loser will have to hand in his resignation. The producers who think they are clever and above everyone else invite the common Joe actor to the audition with a focus on a monetary guarantee of success. But they are not actors at all; they are real people whose identities have been kept concealed for life and death reason. Out of greed and selfishness their secrets become exposed and everyone is in jeopardy of the final outcome.
