Project Synopsis
As a group of Servants attempt to assassinate the Emperor, they discover that power may not be all that they had once desired. Learning that their target is engaged in a number of self-destructive behaviours, our conspirators are forced to follow down a long rabbit hole of strange diets, machismo, and fascism should they want to prove that they deserve the right to rule. As a satire of manhood, ultimately no one’s happy with where they end up.
