About Stakes Is High
STAKES IS HIGH is the story of Will Goldin, an actor whose life is turned upside down when he leases a car to drive for a rideshare company. Will quickly realizes he can’t afford rent and the car lease, so he moves into his car to try to get ahead. Teetering on the edge of homelessness, he sacrifices everything to hold onto his dreams but it may not be enough – a modern day "Taxi Driver" and social commentary on the gig economy.
Directed by Jean-Pierre Caner, Stakes Is High leans on a strong ensemble — Rahad Coulter-Stevenson, Kestrin Pantera, Noel Arthur — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 0.
