The story is written and directed by Ben Younger. Its a modern sharp style with an overlay of commentary from the lead role at the points where you need knowledge of trader-speak. It centres on the lead and guiding character, Seth, played by Giovanni Ribisi, a college dropout who has taken to running a Blackjack game in his house as a business. When cash flashing Gregg the trader walks in, he gets sucked into the ceedier side of stock trading with a cowboy outfit making telephone number pay-checks.

There are side plots of family woes and love interests but the major shaft of light falls on the weakness of humans. How ordinary god fearing, children loving men take their savings and give them to people on the basis of a ten minute 'cold call'. Not believable? Trust me, its the way the world works.
