Film: Untitled Fiction Project

The only reason I've been watching this web series is because of the concept behind it.

The concept? Well it's "an unscripted dramatic web series... Each week, the Director and two Actors will shoot a one location scene of no more than 10 minutes (an episode). The scenes will be mostly improvised and each scene will build upon the story world created in the previous scene."
