When Eastern European criminals Oleg and Emil come to New York City to pick up their share of a heist score, Oleg steals a video camera and starts filming their activities, both legal and illegal. When they learn how the American media circus can make a remorseless killer look like the victim and make them rich, they target media-savvy NYPD Homicide Detective Eddie Flemming and media-naive FDNY Fire Marshal Jordy Warsaw, the cops investigating their murder and torching of their former criminal partner, filming everything to sell to the local tabloid TV show "Top Story."

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A media-fueled nightmare where amoral killers weaponize their own crimes for fame, turning the apparatus of justice and news into their accomplices. Watching it is like being stuck in a machine that rewards the worst impulses.
