Despite his large mansion and intimidating bank balance, multimillionaire Nicholas Van Orton (Michael Douglas) is haunted by the childhood memory of his father's suicide. On the day he reaches the same age his father was when he died, Nicholas receives an unconventional birthday present from his estranged brother Conrad (Sean Penn): an invitation to play a mysterious "game," the aim and rules of which are kept secret. As the game unfolds, Nicholas suddenly finds himself in a fight for his life, assisted by the enigmatic Christine (Deborah Kara Unger) but unsure of where to turn and who to trust. (Arrow Films)
