Synopsis
Caesar (Rick Amsbury), an officer for a dictatorial regime, is mandated to see a psychiatrist due to relentless nightmares. In these dreams, he’s trapped in a purgatorial landscape among unfamiliar faces. As the nightmares intensify, he confesses to his therapist that he’s among the passengers of a plane downed by his own government—an act in which he was complicit. In the dream, unlike the others, he alone retains his memory, a power he uses to recast himself as a hero and savior to the lost souls, even being worshiped as a prophet. His control seems secure—until he encounters Delilah, who begins to unravel his illusions.
