Contesting

By Andrew Kooman

A woman and a man wake up in a room with no memory of who they are or how they got there. As they dialogue, faint memories of a common past materialize, as do strange objects that become clues to the tragic story of their arrival in the room.

As they piece together their history and the tragic events of the outside world, they discover they're contestants on the world's deadliest gameshow and only one will survive.
