The film follows bank teller Guy who discovers he’s living inside of a video game as an NPC (Non-Playable Character). In a move reminiscent of The Truman Show and Wreck-It Ralph, Guy breaks the cycle of his programming in the game to stop a bank heist in his open-world shooter title. As a result, he meets heroine Molotov Girl (the protagonist being controlled by Jodie Comer) to assist in a mission that affects the very game he lives in.
