Much more of a psychological horror story than I was expecting, I thought it might be a little more fantastical, but still a compelling tale of two willful men, one in power and one powerless, and the abuses that can take place in those kinds of scenarios.

A grim tale of two strangers drinking and gambling their lives away in a San Francisco bar.
