Writer
“A young writer is driven mad by a sequence of infuriating events.”
A thriller with a dash of black comedy; as a writer faces multiple rejections and financial trouble, injustices both big and small begin to aggravate and infuriate him.
Everything comes to a head when he is threatened over a disputed lunch bill. He snaps. He loses grip on reality, and releases his inner monster on the most available victim.
