Each player has 3 dice. Choose a player to start with Creative Control. They describe the movie: the setting, themes, cast, plot and scenes. At any time, someone may interrupt and give a die to attempt to take Creative Control. They both roll. High roll gets Creative Control and continues describing the movie. Low roll introduces a minor complication.

Players without dice may get one from another by agreeing to a stipulation.

Player with Creative Control may ask another for help to lock in an aspect of the movie. Both players lose a die each.

Once all dice are lost, the movie is released as is.
