‘What You Wish For’

Ryan (Nick Stahl), a struggling chef with gambling debts, goes to visit his friend Jack (Brian Groh), who lives on a posh Latin American estate. Jack welcomes Ryan into an extravagant lifestyle. However, when a tragic event transpires, Ryan assumes Jack’s identity, only to also inherit his friend’s unique troubles.
