Danish Mediations, The / Slots

Synopsis:
the Danish Mediations/Slots follows Kiah, an actor producing his dream show-a production of Hamlet where the roles change every night, determined by a random drawing of names. He enlists his friends to realize his vision, among them an up-and-coming television star, a budding actor/filmmaker, and an old flame. But while Kiah's cast-mates begin to loathe each other, ignore their work, and focus on everything but the show, he learns who among his friends can-or can't-be trusted. Unfortunately, Kiah's biggest betrayal won't come from without, but from within.
