Up-and-coming LA actor Dominic Graves has a disappointing portfolio of forgettable television work and low-budget exploitation films. So, when his insulting, crummy agent tells him that Ignacio Martinez, an influential South American filmmaker, wants him to play the lead in his action movie, it comes as a welcome shock. Sadly, accidents and quarrels besiege the production, and the director's reckless fixation with realism and relentless quest for perfectionism impede filming and puts everyone's safety at stake.
When Dominic's striking, svelte young co-star, Sofia Prodva, becomes enamored with the American actor, the palpable sexual chemistry between the two stars creates a toxic environment. It turns out that Sofia is the director's mistress, and the moment Ignacio senses the betrayal, relations between the director and his principal actor take a turn for the worse.
The nightmarish movie-making experience is nothing compared to the actor's exploits away from the film set, where jealousy, rivalry, and revenge stalk him to the final shoot, leading to chaos and bloodshed.
