Designing Villain

Hopeless and wounded, Joe makes friends fully anticipating them to be future enemies. He defies family, love and wisdom with one goal in mind: to get on a competition reality program. For Joe, condemning happiness is the only cure to his own confusion and the only way he knows how to prove himself worthy of being a shameless reality personality. Joe struggles to adapt, and grows out of control when building his anti-fairy-tale existence. Ultimately, he does find himself on the precipice of being cast as the worst version of himself, when the girl of his dreams enters his life. She helps him to understand the grave sacrifices he must make when attempting to bare it all to the world.
