Struggling author Samuel suffers from a whopping case of writer's block and, as a result, can't pay his rent. Forced to take in a roommate to cover costs, he's now inexorably tied to his housemate's felonious activities. But Sam hesitates to take action -- because suddenly he's inspired to write a killer story. Director James Roberts's quirky film ponders just how far a writer will go for the story of his life.
