Successful Broadway thriller writer Sidney Bruhl is faced with a dry spell that he can’t seem to overcome. However, Sidney receives a script from a student that he knows will make it on Broadway. With the help of his wife, Sidney creates a plan of collaboration with the student for co-credit. But things never go as planned. The plot thickens and will leave you shocked until the end.
