A candidate in a game show is hunted by three men. He will get a Million DMark, if he survives for a week; the hunters will get the money, if they can kill the candidate. The audience of the show is watching the transmissions of twenty camera teams filming the hunt. The showmaster appeals to the TV-viewers to help either the candidate or the hunters, whomever they want.

VIBE

A brutal, cynical thriller where the line between entertainment and murder blurs. It's a raw, high-stakes chase that questions media's role in sensationalizing violence, leaving you breathless and disturbed.
