James (Ted Raimi, well-known for having played in films of his older brother Sam Raimi – “The Evil Dead”, “Darkman”, “Spiderman” etc.), having taken over the family’s plastics business after the death of his father, finds himself drowning in debts, with his existence threatened, just as his daughter, Jessica, is preparing for a very lavish wedding. Facing life or death decisions versus financial ruin, James is torn apart as he deals with his dilemma with the help (and often bad advice) of a mysterious ghost of a man that follows him around like a shadow, or is he really the devil’s advocate?

Shot in one single take with no cuts, no tricks and no excuses, “Failure!” is a smart genre-bending thriller from an exciting new voice on the Mexican scene.
