Two rival psychiatrists play mind games with increasingly high stakes. Greg Entel, a brilliant but obnoxious psychiatrist, manipulates the protagonist, Al Letne, into living his life towards a mysterious goal. Greg also convinces Al to take authorship of Greg's controversial ground-breaking book, The Balancing Game. That self-help book espouses a religious philosophy that gives hope to the desperate and claims to be able to calculate future happiness. But, as The Balancing Game becomes a cultural phenomenon, Greg continues to push Al to his limit. Does that limit include murder? And who is Greg Entel really: a charlatan or a messiah? You decide. ("The Balancing Game", written by Joseph Eliashvili M.D. and Mark Ellis, was adapted into a screenplay that won a Project Blue Light Award, to make the first scene into a 25-minute short film.)
