When Penny (Rachael McOwen, of The Amazing Spider-Man 2) comes across a mysterious box that promises to grant her greatest wish, she is transported to an Underworld Club. There she meets Lucien (Christopher Elliott). He tells her that to get her wish, she must play the Game and reach Number One. Penny encounters a series of quirky characters before coming across a solitary Barefoot Man (Thomas Nelson). He warns her about Lucien.
