Title: Official Selection

Synopsis: Two filmmakers clash creatively in mid-production, resulting in a metafilm duel of genres as they write the story they are living. Both will stop at nothing to preserve their own vision for the film. As the battle grows, they discover that their imagination is the limit for their arsenal, and find themselves in lethal combat, where only one can emerge triumphant.
