The script behind the award-winning short-film, based on the original story by Daniel Ninkovic. Having authored a previous novel Snide Clyde Died, Daniel conceived of Cap and Trade as a short story adapted into a proof-of-concept sci-fi short film. Daniel's stories present morally gray characters and dilemmas with no easy answer, stories that keep you guessing the plot beats and character motivations. Cap and Trade presents the first of many planned story projects that grip audiences and keeps them on the edge of their seat.
