- Overview
- A film club hosts a 48 hour film fest every year and heist film enthusiast Amber is determined to win. When an unlikable member of the club is assigned to write this year's film prompts, Amber has an idea: a heist to get the prompts early. In order to get these prompts she needs help. Amber teams up with quiet club member Max.
