Two performance artists are in a race to be the first in their medium to kill a man, live on stage. However, their growing desire for each other complicates their violent artistic ambitions.

Judith is an English performance artist who is looking for a creative way to fix her reputation after a “happening” goes awry (and she ends up stabbing a young man in the leg). Her publicist proposes that she start a nationwide search for a mentee, an underprivileged performance artist looking for funding and guidance to break into the scene. She encounters Salem Shelby, an artist and dancer with a controversial portfolio, and is instantly smitten. The two navigate their growing chemistry and intimacy as they dream of pushing the bounds of performance art, also navigating how much they can experiment in the medium before it becomes an act of terrorism.
