synopsis
Aubrey, a struggling actress, is desperate for a chance. After yet another rejection, Aubrey is finally granted an opportunity by none other but The Devil himself. He offers Aubrey a deal: success, if she’s able to pass through a rite that would cost her soul.
Jules, Aubrey’s longtime friend, introduces her to a major film producer, Richie. Three have dinner, and Aubrey is a witness first hand to how much of a monster he is. It becomes clear that he is the rite the Devil intends for Aubrey to overcome—if Aubrey sleeps with Richie, doors would open for her. Aubrey’s faced with the classic moral dilemma of our time: sacrifice your integrity for fame or miss a once in a lifetime opportunity…forever.
Confronted with a difficult choice, Aubrey ultimately chooses her career, and loses a part of herself in doing so.
