This suspense/thriller was created for the 2025 Easterseals Disability Film Challenge by cast and crew with disabilities and allies of the disabled film community.

When "DEI" is rearranged to "DIE", who will survive? 

Jack and Lester set out for a night out together, but being tied up in the basement of a serial killer targeting people with disabilities was not on their plan.  The killer isn't making communication easy, keeping them in a dark room, with their hands tied, preventing them from using ASL.  Can they escape? How will they escape? And what will happen when they do?
