SYNOPSIS: On the night of his first movie premiere, Jacob Sanders is hounded by mounting issues and paranoid delusions appearing on the screen. Disaster looms at every turn – his family argues, audience members complain, the popcorn machine breaks, and the movie file doesn’t work. All of these problems are exacerbated by the rumored arrival of a famous Actor. Jacob struggles to overcome disaster, all while fending off criticisms, expectations, and disturbing figments of his imagination.
