If you had to trade someone else’s life to save your own, who would you pick?
It’s the year 2073 and Rowan Greenbaum is condemned to die of an easily cured form of cancer. The reason? His zip code is over its maximum population capacity—at least, according to recent legislation enshrined into law at the behest of the country’s largest health insurance company. This population cap disqualifies Rowan from lifesaving treatment but he discovers a loophole that allows him to trade another life for his own.
With the cancerous clock ticking, he sets off in search of his sacrificial savior, beginning a downward spiral of desperation and manipulation that will ensnare everyone around him, even those he loves most.
It's Catch-22 meets Black Mirror, a darkly funny and deeply depressing story about love, life, and death set against the cold, unfeeling machinery of corporate-captured bureaucracy.
