In a frantic bid to survive, he concocts a wild scheme to hire a clueless, struggling actor, convincing him that he is starring in a gritty action film. As the actor unknowingly plays the role of a deadly killer in front of real mobsters, a chaotic web of misunderstandings unfolds. Will the hustler pull off this ultimate deception, or will his elaborate lie catch up to him? This entertaining tale of survival and cinema perfectly captures the desperate lengths one will go to during their own magic hour.
