About
New York City English professor Axel Freed outwardly seems like an upstanding citizen. But privately Freed is in the clutches of a severe gambling addiction that threatens to destroy him.
Axel Freed maintains a polished veneer as an academic while his private life dissolves into a frantic, compulsive cycle of high-limit bets. This portrait of self-destruction captures the hollow thrill of the casino and the inevitable erosion of a man's dignity.
