You’re a man in your mid-30s with a fulfilling job, a loving wife, and a strong circle of friends. One day, a wrong turn on your commute reveals strange radio transmissions narrating your actions. Disturbed, you enter a building and discover a TV set. Your wife, under pressure, admits that everyone around you—friends, family, even her—are paid actors. The show’s director appears and explains: your entire life has been a globally broadcast reality show since birth, scripted by writers and staged on a massive set. You are the unknowing star. You’re given a choice to either leave, but lose all legal rights to sue, adopt a new name and identity, and live anonymously in a remote community. Or you can stay, sign a contract, and remain in the show forever.
