Rent Charisma

Synopsis

An attempt to imprint the successful character traits of a high-achieving man into the minds of a thousand poor and minority children takes an evil turn. The model for the imprinting, Alexander Marcus, is a wealthy African-American, powerful and influential. But he has a twisted dark side, and his proclivity for violence has been passed along to the children. The ensuing ethical dilemma--should the children be killed?--may be mere thought-experiment as the imprinted subjects decide not to wait around for the collective answer.
