To win his superiors' admiration the story's hero, Golyadkin, starts working on perfecting a new cyber-weapon only to find that a new arrival in the office who looks remarkably like him is taking all the credit for his work.
In this new adaptation the 21st century begins to intrude - samovars bubble, dances mix trance with live string quartets, electric taxis whine on the highways while horses clatter by and computers are gas-fuelled. In Golyadkin's fractured mind he's lost all sense of where he exists in time and what we're experiencing is his dream of the future. Dostoyevsky's themes of grinding bureaucracy, societal pressures inducing feelings of inadequacy and hopelessness are given a bleakly modern twist.

And I can see the type of man I want to be versus the type of man I actually am and I know that I'm doing it but I'm incapable of what needs to be done.

This turns Hannah against him. Going home to confront James, James tackles Simon into a wall and lightly grazes his throat with a knife. The next day Simon gets angry when James tells a joke to a circle of employees, all who are laughing along. Simon has a tantrum, yelling many expletives.
This results in Simon being fired. He then goes into his home with a new spare key and writes a suicide note, intending to kill himself by jumping from his window. Looking across the street, he sees Hannah on her bed, unconscious. Simon brings her to the hospital where he learns she overdosed on pills and miscarried from a sexual encounter with James. He takes her home where she suggests he kill himself. Simon goes home and hears his mother has died through his answering machine.
He runs to the funeral and punches James at the burial ceremony. In doing this he realizes that he and James develop the same injuries. Simon awakes later beside the buried grave and runs to Hannah and tell her he wants to be visible and noticed. Simon handcuffs a sleeping James to his bed and calls the suicide department and tells them someone is jumping to their death.
Simon hits the awning and lands with severe injuries. Hannah runs to him and an ambulance arrives.
