The Martini Shot is a mostly improvisational piece about a well known actor that's fallen on hard times. He decides to kill himself at the end of his new film's wrap party in order to preserve his immortality before it's ruined by these lousy pictures he's found himself doing. As the night goes on, he finds both reasons for and against him following through with it. A character piece about Hollywood and the damage done.

"They never come right out and tell you that", explains Federico, an Italian teenager to an interviewer. While Josephine, a young Parisian sits in court as her lawyer continues, "And let's not forget that Ms. Dupont was an elderly woman at the time". And Julian, an Irish basketball star looks away with detachment from the noisy Dublin pub. All their fates are intertwined in some way in today's Young Europe... What's important is who touches and who is touched.
