A renowned jewelry thief hatches the perfect plan to rob an un-robbable store. All he needs to do is convince two desperate actors that it is all film set, but will they act the part?
Project collaboration: By Permission
Synopsis: Two down-on-their-luck actors apply for a part in a film as a last resort, little knowing that they are walking straight into the plan of notorious jewelry thief, Derek Hornby. Having just been released from jail, Derek is desperate to pull off his perfect plan, and will do anything to see that it succeeds.
Convincing the actors that they will be in a film, Derek orchestrates his robbery with crime partner Bill Murdoch, regardless of Bill's increasing sense of unease.
On their case is Detective Inspector Felix, the officer who put Derek in jail originally, and knows without a doubt that Hornby is up to something.
The race is on between Derek and Felix to outsmart the other, while the stakes are raised between the two actors, as they struggle to realize their dreams from reality.
