A slow, sour burn of bureaucratic menace and mob hysteria, watching an innocent man ground down by a system that needs a monster.

How it feels: Dark, satirical, cynical and tense. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Corruption, media, power, justice
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
