Elsbeth has paid a million dollars for a private day with the president, an investment she believes will unlock insider secrets, market dominance, and a place among the ultra-elite.
But as the day turns more and more surreal and conversations drift into absurdity, she begins to question whether she’s negotiating with power or is being a mere play ball of it.
