В шоу-бизнесе нет лучшего мастера спецэффектов, чем Ролли Тайлер. Его уникальные способности создавать на экране грандиозные иллюзии приносят ему множество заказов от крупнейших студий Голливуда. На этот раз его заказчиком становится… Министерство юстиции. Суть дела: разыграть «убийство» важного свидетеля, дающего показания против теневых воротил.

Совсем скоро он обнаруживает себя в смертельном капкане лжи и предательства.
