In a nameless harbour city, James Mathers is a 30 year-old intellectual property lawyer who appears to have it all. But James is unsettled inside, having realised the prestige attached to his job is all an illusion.
When James discovers his girlfriend is cheating on him, he takes a room at the Dream City casino, a city within a city where a new logic seems to rule. At the Dream, James encounters Anton, a brilliant former classmate expelled in the tenth grade.
With Anton, James travels into the Dream's dark heart, and is soon unable to distinguish the stakes of the gaming lounge from those of the supposedly real world.
