Private Project

For Better or Worse

When Moa and Jason, two down-on-their-luck singles, agree to get married at first sight and spend a whole year in a locked bunker for the whole world to livestream 24x7, they never signed up to have their love life determine the fate of the world.

But that’s just what’s happened thanks to The Narrator - the mastermind of the show - who tells the world that the fate of humanity hinges on Moa and Jason falling in true love.

Can their producer, Maja, steer the newlyweds, the skeleton crew of their disaster of a reality show, and the fate of humanity to a happy (and hopefully entertaining) ending? And can she fight her feelings for Moa long enough to do it?

Writer Biography - Jessica Forbes

Jessica has seen the insides of boardrooms and back alleys and finds their characters and motivations morally identical. Escaping life in California almost a decade ago, she lives by the sea in Sweden with her partner, kid, and two semi-hairless cats where she dreams in two languages and writes tall tales in one-and-a-half.
