Dark comedic thriller from film-maker duo Rachael Moriarty and Peter Murphy, set in post-economic collapse Ireland. Pencil-pusher Vernon (John Bradley) comes up with a business idea - to connect people tempted to commit 'econocide' by unemployment and financial ruin, and allow them to fight to the death with the winner taking the other's life savings. Crowned 'Trading', the object of the dark game is to win enough fights to be able to live off the savings, or literally die trying. Vernon convinces his colleague Harry (Killian Scott) to participate, which he does reluctantly at first, until he discovers he's quite good at the Trading business.
