As the president of a trashy TV channel, Max Renn is desperate for new programming to attract viewers.

The Wild Hunt
A MODERN MEDIEVAL SAGA, The Wild Hunt tells the story of Erik Magnusson, a young man who decides to follow his estranged girlfriend Evelyn into a medieval re-enactment game when he discovers that she has been seduced by one of the players.

Reality and fantasy collide. The good-hearted game turns into a tragedy of mythic proportion...
