Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Seven youngsters accept to participate in an experimental drug trial in the Blackwood Pharmaceutical facility conducted by Dr. Burke. In common, they all need the money promised by the laboratory to improve their lives. The homeless Claire; the medical student Amir Sardar; the aspirant college girl Alison; Ray; Paul; Vanessa; and Marcus. Soon they all experience side effects and stay awake. Amir suspects that something is wrong in the experiment and gets into Dr. Burke's computer to check and copy the scans and data. There is a violation, and the facility is locked down for twenty-four hours. While trying to escape before the lockdown, Dr. Burke is crushed by the door. When Alison mysteriously dies, Amir analyzes the data and realizes that they need to stay awake; otherwise, they will die. But the lack of sleep makes the group have paranoia and visions, and start to fight each other. Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil |
