 This is an American conspiracy thriller movie with an interesting plot. A young billionaire born with a heart disorder requires an immediate heart transplant to survive.

What happens in the surgery room will take you for a ride. Once the anaesthesia hits the young man, he goes into a state of clairvoyance where he is able to sense everything that happens to him very clearly despite being immobile.
