Peter is about to direct his first long feature film. Seeking absolute authenticity in the performance of the actors, he chooses them according to their background and studies their psyche to fit his movie's characters. During the process, Peter speaks to someone about manipulation and justifies his behavior with the brainwashing applied around the world. His assistant director, also his friend, is a shoulder to cry on about a love failure experience. Peter's methods, however, don't always have predictable consequences.
