Film: Midas
Ricky Pryce is blessed with good looks and a devious charisma, but they’re wasted on Grubhub Delivery orders and supporting his sick mother as his high school friends graduate college and move on with their lives. When he meets Claire Brent, the daughter of the Midas Health Insurance CEO, his lies are meant to win her over instead of winning him a job at the same company that laid off his mother. Ricky sees an opportunity and hatches a plan to set up fraudulent payouts to help pay for his mother’s upcoming surgery. To pull it off, he enlists the help of his two best friends, who have their own financial woes.
As first-time criminals, the trio is forced to learn on the fly. When an unexpected discovery reveals a dark secret, they’re faced with a choice—take the money and run, or stand up for what they believe?
